A global IT company strengthened its vendor relationships through improved quality of interactions and minimized operational costs.
A global IT services company provider was facing challenges to maintain relationships with its diverse network of over 15,000 vendors, resulting in non-adherence to service delivery agreements. Effective vendor management is key to reducing costs, driving service excellence and mitigating risks.
Since the vendors were spread across multiple regions, effectively addressing the large volume of queries in 14 languages was challenging for the organization leading to poor vendor experiences. This had a negative impact on vendor satisfaction levels and also resulted in several contracts with the same vendor or disparate transactions with multiple vendors. Such setbacks caused delays in project completion timelines with lower customer satisfaction levels.
EY was appointed to provide a scalable solution that could meet the rising demands of the organization’s complex supplier ecosystem and support in managing it effectively.
EY Fabric AI Space, an enterprise artificial intelligence (AI) and automation platform, equipped the organization with new technology capabilities that helped in effectively managing a complex multi-vendor ecosystem. Built on advanced machine learning algorithms and AI models, EY Fabric AI Space offered a tailor-made suite of AI solutions and deployed an on-premise multi-channel, multi-lingual chatbot.
The solution comprised a robust AI engine, capable of interpreting the inputs received from different vendors and responding intelligently by interfacing with various other enterprise applications. The combined vision of the organization and EY teams was to create an AI-powered digital workforce that augments human input and creates a better user experience with minimal operating expenditures.
“We help businesses build their own automation capabilities to improve governance, reduce costs and help create long-term value. EY Fabric AI Space helped our client resolve vendor queries nonstop, resulting in a manual effort reduction and enhanced vendor experience.” Vijay Shankar – EY India Automation and Artificial Intelligence Leader; Partner, Business Consulting, Ernst & Young LLP
