Executive Summary

ANALYST: COI RESEARCH

To ensure Sunshine Act compliance and streamline supplier payments, the pharma giant automated its P2P workflow. The solution links POs directly to verified vendor contracts and uses OCR to digitize invoices, ensuring that every payment to a Healthcare Professional (HCP) is accurately tracked and reported.

rate_review Analyst Verdict

"Compliance-driven automation. In Pharma, P2P isn't just about efficiency; it's about regulatory reporting (transparency of payments to doctors). The tight integration between the invoice and the contract is the key value driver here."

warning The Challenge

Manual invoice processing made it difficult to aggregate spend data for regulatory reporting (e.g., payments to doctors/speakers). Risk of non-compliance fines was high due to lack of visibility.

psychology The Solution

Deployed SAP Ariba for procurement and OpenText for invoice digitization. The workflow forces categorization of spend at the requisition stage. Invoices are 3-way matched automatically against the compliant PO.
