Savings Increase As Volume Increases

IntraMalls continues to grow by removing costs for both buyers and sellers. Buyers and sellers use a balance of hard and soft cost savings to justify IntraMalls value to the organization. We remove cost burden rather than shift burden among buyers and sellers by treating each party as a vital customer.

Third-Party Neutral Assurance Services.

IntraMalls maintains a commitment to neutrality in delivering Assurance Services for buyers and sellers. IntraMalls acts as a referee to enforce rules, resolve process and transaction conflicts and accelerate the business cycle.

Acting as a third-party neutral service provider, IntraMalls never negotiates prices, terms or conditions of sale between buyer and seller. We ensure that both parties have the information and online services they need to make informed decisions and conduct business efficiently.

Acting as a third-party neutral service provider, IntraMalls is never the seller nor agent of record for a transaction. We ensure that sellers are connected to their customers and the transaction process is efficient and auditable.

IntraMalls Assurance Services can not be delivered by banks, credit card networks, buyers nor sellers who have a vested interest in the transaction.

Focus on Micro-Purchases

Micro-purchases account for as much as 95 percent of your transaction workload but amount to less than 25 percent of budgeted spending. Automating 95% of an organization's transactions is smart and cost effective.

IntraMalls Assurance Services balance the need for controls and reporting with the cost appropriate time, money and effort applied to managing micro-purchases. Most organizations find that micro-purchase obligations average between $500-$1000. Add typical administrative costs of between $25 and $100 for each transaction and the financial impact of managing small purchases is staggering.

Many of our clients previously turned to Purchase Card (“P-Card”) programs to reduce these costs and empower their workforce but were dissatisfied with workforce acceptance, financial controls and reporting. IntraMalls wraps your micro-purchase process with assurances demanded by prudent managers and the conveniences demanded by todays workforce.

IntraMalls solutions are ideally suited for:

* All of whom share some common concerns regarding the handling of micro-purchases.
