Kimberly-Clark Streamlines Supplier Management With ETQ

Kimberly-Clark (K-C), a global leader in health and hygiene products, confronted significant obstacles in managing its supplier contracts due to fragmented repositories and labor-intensive manual processes. These challenges not only led to inefficiencies in contract tracking but also heightened overhead costs and security concerns. To address these issues, K-C sought a robust software solution that would centralize contract management while safeguarding sensitive information. After evaluating various options, K-C selected ETQ Reliance® for its user-friendly interface, powerful search capabilities, and customizable features.

The implementation of a dedicated "Contract Management" module has allowed K-C to streamline workflows and enhance collaboration with suppliers through the Responsible Contract Process (RCP). This secure platform enables suppliers to access only relevant data, ensuring confidentiality while improving operational efficiency. As a result, K-C anticipates an impressive return on investment of approximately 3,200% from its supplier contract management initiatives.

This case study exemplifies how K-C has leveraged ETQ's innovative solutions to transform its contract management landscape, reinforcing its commitment to excellence in supplier relationships and operational efficiency. Access the full case study to learn more.
