Mastercard-funded Academy

The academy, is partly funded by the Master Card foundation and aims to develop young leaders across Africa. E-Procurement was implemented in Jan/Feb 2020. The organization has a staff of almost 200; of which 140 raise their own purchase requests on the system.

Before Wemasoft, the organization was using Kissflow. The challenges were:

  • Approval workflows were rigid – not as customizable to desired levels

  • Manual budget checking, when done

  • Limited automated messaging/reminders

  • Slow quote sourcing which was manual

  • Middle-manager requests were not approved by anyone
