What issue does your solution solve?
The issue that Pulse Market solves is the inefficiency and complexity in supplier management and procurement processes. Many businesses face challenges such as slow response times in RFPs, RFIs, and DDQs, limited data gathering and reporting as well as difficulties in managing supplier relationships and information.
Pulse Market addresses these issues by providing a cloud-based platform that effortless gathers data, streamlines procurement workflows, centralises assets, and ensures data security.
Our software also eliminates manual follow-ups, reduces spreadsheet struggles, and offers customisation options to align with unique procurement workflows.
Pulse Market ultimately aims to simplify and master the procurement and due diligence processes, saving businesses time, reducing complexity, and enhancing overall efficiency in supplier management.
Who is your solution aimed at? What does your perfect client look like?
