AutoClass, Zycus' AI based solution, rolled out globally across GE divisions to drive enterprise-wide adoption of UNSPSC and provide Strategic Sourcing support.
Santa Clara, California: Zycus Inc, the leader in AI driven automated purchasing and supply content management solutions, announced today that General Electric (NYSE: GE), one of the world's largest companies, selected Zycus' automated UNSPSC classification engine, (AutoClass), to further drive company-wide adoption of UNSPSC, and enhance spend analyses. The solution, available in real-time and batch classification modes, is designed for use by thousands of requisitioners across the company.
In the "Live Connect" mode, AutoClass classifies all catalog and non-catalog purchases at the source, thus ensuring data integrity. GE users employ AutoClass daily to classify free text procurement requests. Results are received within seconds and assist in providing granular spend classification for GE's purchases. In the 'Batch Connect' mode, AutoClass classifies historical purchase data or inventory data, thus providing ongoing insight into GE's spend landscape and increased inventory visibility.
AutoClass is capable of integration with numerous purchasing systems like Oracle iProcurement, and XML punch-out sites. The solution's ability to handle multi-industry data is an added advantage given GE's diverse range and area of operations.
Commenting on GE's selection of AutoClass, Gary Reiner, Chief Information Officer and Senior Vice President, said, "By classifying all purchasing transactions at the source, AutoClass should provide significant benefits in terms of increased data integrity and superior sourcing decisions brought about by increased spend visibility".
"We are delighted to be working with the world's most admired company. The enterprise-wide deployment of AutoClass will give GE detailed insight into its spend, help monitor and eventually control purchasing transactions. GE has often been an early adopter of cutting edge technology for improving business processes: By providing real-time spend classification for GE's purchasing transactions, Zycus will enhance spend tracking and compliance throughout GE," said Aatish Dedhia, CEO, Zycus Inc.
