FutureLog Achieves Milestone Year, Setting the Pace in Hospitality Procurement Technology Innovation in 2024 and Beyond In a year marked by dynamic progress and innovation, FutureLog, a leading provider of procure-to-pay software for the hospitality industry, celebrated significant accomplishments in 2023, reinforcing its commitment to advancing the P2P journey for hoteliers worldwide. With groundbreaking achievements and remarkable success, the company has set a new standard in the industry, paving the way for an exceptional year ahead in 2024. Throughout 2023, FutureLog steadfastly focused on customer-centric innovation, resulting in substantial improvements to the user experience (UX). The company implemented transformative enhancements to its web and native mobile apps, delivering seamless, user-friendly, and intuitive procure-to-pay interactions. Key platform advancements included the launch of its Contract Management module, enhanced Recipe Management functionality and a Business Intelligence (BI) reporting suite. Additional developments included a streamlined goods-receiving process, free-text ordering, invoicing customisations, POS integrations, product certification handling and UX design overhauls. FutureLog has dismantled data silos, consolidating a rich repository of procure-to-pay data with enhanced BI capabilities. Clients can access actionable insights, trend analyses, visualisations, and in-depth analytics, providing invaluable tools for shaping and refining business strategies. In 2023, FutureLog added to its growing Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Point of Sale (POS) integrations list, including connectivity to MYOB, XERO API, Quadratus and more. This expansion strengthens the platform’s global reach while aligning seamlessly with region-specific demands. Efficiency in contract management is a pivotal aspect of streamlined hospitality operations, and the procurement innovator’s newly introduced digital archive ensures precisely that. The platform offers easy access, robust search capabilities, and automated in-app expiration notifications, allowing clients to remain audit-compliant and retain control over critical contracts, licenses, certificates, and documents. FutureLog’s comprehensive recipe management solution also underwent a complete overhaul, enhancing culinary operations for clients. New features and functions facilitate the easy creation, organisation, and updating of recipes and menus, with direct Point of Sale (POS) integration for automated stock depletion. The solution enables effortless recipe sharing within groups, offering detailed nutritional and allergen information and comprehensive cost analyses through their BI tool.
