Press Release
Body = Mechanicsburg, PA August 1, 2005 -- Procurement solution
provider TSA (Technical Services Associates) today announced that
Blueshield of California launched Puridiom 3.0, becoming another
TSA (Technical Services Associates) client to roll out the hosted,
100% web-based procurement solution.
Blueshield of
CA Vice President and Controller, Emmalee Noble, stated “The
Executive Council recently approved two new work practice changes
that will save the company nearly $500,000 annually. These changes
will impact how we order office supplies and how we manage our cell
phone costs.”
Blueshield of
CA selected the web-based Puridiom solution to control purchases
using the Catalog Punch-out, particularly with Office Max. According
to their purchase contract, Blueshield of CA negotiated substantial
discounts in exchange for pooling
company-wide purchases from approximately 300 approved office supply
items. Funneling their purchases to an approved set of office items
merited the savings discount.
Puridiom’s
advantage is the ease of access and intuitiveness of the application.
End-Users simply select their items from the Office Max On-Line
Catalog and ‘check out’ their items back into Puridiom.
Puridiom then uses cxml technology to place the
order with the supplier instantly with the items delivered the next
day.
