Royal Caribbean Cruises is to roll out Ariba software to
analyse its £700m annual spending across its fleet of 29 vessels
and help source products.
"Each of our ships must be self-supporting," said Michael
McNamara, director, strategic sourcing planning and automation, at
Royal Caribbean Cruises. "We must provision everything, including
energy, maintenance, IT, waste management, consumables and all
other necessities. The Ariba provides a single point of integration
for sourcing and analysis."
