Hello, my name is Alexandr Orlenko, and I am excited to share my extensive expertise in e-procurement and procure-to-pay (P2P) systems. Having served as a Senior Engineering Manager at Setronica for over 19 years, I have dedicated my career to working on projects related to e-procurement and P2P.
I’m starting a series of articles sharing my experience with e-procurement projects. These articles will cover the challenges and unique aspects of implementing procurement systems based on what I’ve learned firsthand. I hope you’ll find this information useful as I share my perspective on e-procurement.
With seven years in this field, we’d like to share what we’ve learned. First, let me tell you a bit about Setronica.
Setronica has worked in e-commerce for over 20 years. During this time, we’ve kept up with industry changes and new approaches.
We’ve worked with major companies, integrated with established marketplaces, and built our own marketplace platform. This experience has taught us how to create product catalogs and handle integration challenges.
Our foray into e-procurement emerged organically as a natural progression when a partner recognized our expertise and invited us to join a new challenge. This undertaking involved extending the procure-to-pay process by enhancing the overall user experience.
It encompassed product importation, addition, management, offering, approval, publishing, and purchasing. Through this opportunity, we gained invaluable experience across various domains:
Additionally, we developed the proficiency to generate insightful business reports, further augmenting our expertise in delivering data-driven solutions.
The e-procurement industry changes frequently. At Setronica, we adapt to these changes and continuously learn.
Our experience helps us understand why the industry develops in certain ways, which helps us avoid past mistakes and create better solutions for our clients.
We’re starting this series to share what we’ve learned about e-procurement. We hope these articles will be helpful for people working in the industry.
