Comments

• Juan Carlos Montejano, Management Purchasing Director for FCC:
  “FCC allocates two thirds of their income to paying suppliers and subcontractors. Accurate and effective management of these important economic resources is one of the main challenges faced by a large group, in the context of addressing the challenges of the current economy.”
  
  “With Ariba’s solutions in place, we’re making significant improvements in contracting conditions, working with leading companies to maintain or increase the quality of the contract, and in ensuring compliance with these conditions, as well as electronically managing orders and invoices.”
  
  “Ariba’s on-demand solution is very efficient in terms of cost and rapid implementation,”
• Ted Kondis, Vice President and EMEA General Manager, Ariba.
