Impressive procurement transformation story! Spanish surface manufacturing leader Cosentino has significantly advanced its digital procurement journey through its partnership with JAGGAER.

The results speak volumes – they’ve eliminated 1,700 Excel sheets annually (equivalent to 700+ man-hours) while increasing their share of certified suppliers by 20%. Their Global Head of Suppliers and Processes, Juan Carlos Gallardo, highlights “flexibility” as the key achievement: “We deliver a fast and dynamic experience. Internal clients feel part of this digital transformation and we’ve minimised bureaucracy while adapting to the company’s strategic direction.”

Having implemented their first digital platform in 2018, Cosentino migrated to JAGGAER in 2023 to manage procurement and supplier operations as part of their Transformation 2.0 journey. The platform now unifies negotiations, supplier management, and non-conformities handling – bringing increased visibility, transparency, and operational agility.

“Cosentino stands out for its ability to integrate sustainability into both corporate and procurement strategies,” notes Carlos Tur, JAGGAER’s Country Manager for Spain and Portugal.

By 2026, Cosentino aims to increase critical suppliers assessed under ESG criteria from 250 to 300, working with EcoVadis while leveraging their own ESG Academy for supplier sustainability training.
