Key Improvements

01

Better control over supplier documentation and compliance

Centralized management and follow-up of supplier certificates, NDAs, and agreements give NORBIT better oversight of important documentation and compliance requirements.

02

Less manual administration and more efficient purchasing

Reduced time spent on supplier administration, onboarding, audits, and KPI calculations supports faster decisions and greater purchasing productivity.

03

Stronger supplier risk visibility across the group

Shared supplier information improves oversight of critical suppliers, geopolitical risks, and supplier performance, supporting more consistent and informed sourcing decisions.

The Challenge

Managing suppliers across multiple companies within NORBIT required greater transparency, coordination, and consistency.

Supplier information, contracts, certificates, and agreements needed to be collected, maintained, and followed up, creating administrative work for purchasing teams. At the same time, NORBIT wanted to strengthen supplier qualification, quality follow-ups, compliance, and performance management.

The goal was to establish a more unified approach to supplier management across the Group, reduce manual administration, and gain better oversight of critical suppliers and supply chain risks.

The Solution

NORBIT started using Kodiak Hub as a central platform for supplier information, documentation, performance management, and compliance activities across the Group.

One of the biggest improvements has been document control, particularly the management and follow-up of supplier certificates, NDAs, and agreements.

By collecting supplier data, contracts, and documentation in one system, NORBIT has improved visibility and reduced the administrative effort involved in supplier management.

The platform also supports more structured supplier qualification, audits, quality follow-ups, and performance evaluations, helping purchasing teams work more consistently across the organization.

The Result

NORBIT has improved the efficiency and consistency of its supplier management processes, with better document control standing out as one of the most valuable improvements.

Centralized documentation and more structured follow-ups have strengthened oversight of supplier certificates, NDAs, and agreements, while reducing manual administration and supporting more efficient purchasing processes.

Beyond day-to-day efficiency, improved supplier data and transparency have supported better negotiations, cost control, and more informed sourcing decisions.

NORBIT has also strengthened its approach to supplier risk and resilience. Better oversight of critical suppliers and geopolitical risks helps the Group manage compliance requirements and make more consistent supplier development decisions.

Kodiak Hub has helped NORBIT establish a more coordinated and professional approach to supplier management, allowing its different companies to operate more effectively as "one NORBIT" in the supplier market.
