Contracting eBusiness - Capabilities

Over the last twenty years the procurement community has identified, developed, and deployed a set of procurement enterprise services and capabilities. These capabilities have automated manual processes, reduced numerous redundant systems, provided central interaction points for industry partners, and achieved efficiencies with better internal controls for both the pre-award and post-award contract processes. CeB continues to oversee these enterprise systems to ensure maximum deployment and identifies the need for new capabilities.
