Mercato is one of an elite group of organisations to have achieved an accreditation from the Chartered Institute of Purchasing & Supply (CIPS) as an acknowledgement of its ability to provide good practice in procurement. CIPS is an international organisation, based in the UK, serving the purchasing and supply profession.
"Mercato delivers what CIPS calls the immovable pillars of "good practice". These are auditability, version control, archiving, reporting plus critical elements of the procurement workflow that include approvals, signoff, contracts and procedure, amongst others. Mercato delivers all of this through fully automated systems and has succeeded where many have failed."
