Group Purchasing Organization Partners

Enhancing BirchStreet’s overall value proposition to customers, two of the hospitality industry’s largest procurement services organizations have named BirchStreet their preferred procure-to-pay technology solution: Avendra, the largest supply chain and procurement services company in the hospitality sector, and Hilton Supply Management (HSM). Although both firms are owned by major hotel companies, they both provide comprehensive outsourced sourcing and contracting services to third party hoteliers, restaurant companies, healthcare organizations and country clubs by consolidating the multi-billion dollar purchasing power of thousands of buying entities. These organizations, coupled with BirchStreet procure-to-pay technology generate tremendous value and bottom line savings. Through a rigorous process of researching, testing and benchmarking they identify the suppliers, products and services that drive the most value and are best positioned to meet the varied needs of our joint customers. With BirchStreet, both companies can now offer hoteliers a cloud-based technology solution to complement their purchasing support services.
