Vroozi is a digital procurement and spend management platform that specializes in providing a modern, user-friendly purchasing experience that integrates tightly with SAP and other ERP systems. Founded in 2012, Vroozi recognized that employees would bypass even well-implemented SAP procurement modules due to poor usability. Vroozi's mobile-first, consumer-grade interface sits on top of SAP, providing an intuitive front end while SAP handles the back-end processing. The platform covers purchase requests, catalog management with punchout to supplier sites, approval workflows, and PO management.

Supplier catalog management supports hosted catalogs with approved products and negotiated pricing. Approval workflows are configurable with budget checking against SAP cost centers and purchase orders. Vroozi's analytics provide real-time spend visibility and purchasing metrics. Integration capabilities extend beyond SAP to include Oracle, NetSuite, and other ERP systems.
