Each month, Exiros buyers process more than 57,000 new requirements from users. Purchase orders take an average of 5 days to process. The rapid turnaround time is made possible by extended use (79% of all orders) of long-term, indefinite quantity contracts and continuous improvement of coordination with suppliers making possible the automatic order issuing process to be completed in less than one day (vs. more than 15 days). As a consequence, our performance, measured as the ratio between requirements fulfilled on time (or earlier) and total due requirements is 80%. This indicator reaches 90% if one-week tolerance is added to the delivery date. The rejection/entries ratio for MRO is less than 0.5% and for Raw Materials less than 0.035%. The number of registered suppliers in our marketplace is 29,000; and the number of active suppliers, i.e. those awarded at least one purchase in the last year, is 9,250. Since its founding, Exiros has executed more than 106,000 RF 'X', (Request for Information, Quotation and Reverse Auctions) by means of a customized internal catalogue comprising 370,000 items.
