Purchase orders and invoices are managed in a efficient, digital manner.The new cloud-based system will make it easier doing business with NS.

With this new system, we are investing in our relationships with our suppliers. This system also allows our users to place orders through catalogs in an automated and user-friendly way. From February 2023, this network is our transaction platform for exchanging digital business documents with our suppliers (including purchase orders, order confirmations and invoices). SAP Ariba is a Cloud-based procurement system with a transaction platform called SAP Ariba Business Network. We are increasingly automating and streamlining our ‘Purchase to Pay’ processes to achieve supply chain efficiency and ensure timely payment of invoices. We value the relationship with our suppliers and we are striving to make doing business with NS easier.

We will regularly refresh this site in order to ensure the most accurate information at any time. On this page you will find all the necessary information about this transformation and an elaborate FAQ to answer any question you might have. The transition to a new system fundamentally changes the traditional way of doing business with NS, in a more efficient and effective manner. NS has switched to the SAP Ariba Business Network, in order to streamline and automate our ‘Purchase to Pay processes’.

NS is renewing its Purchase-to-Pay (P2P) environment in order to optimise the P2P process and improve contract compliance.
