Optimised Supply Chain
Whether you are buying or supplying
Simplify, optimise and energise your Supply Chain with flexible easy-to-connect eProcurement, eCommerce, eFunding and eInventory technology. Elcom provides digital and automated contracting, purchasing, invoice handling, inventory management and innovative supplier solutions. We see our solutions as a catalyst for tangible and sustainable community benefit.
How does Elcom work?
Elcom’s understanding of a “customer-centric” approach is much more than just a series of processes to deliver the best experience to our customers. It involves how we – as trusted partners – appreciate the solution requirements and most importantly how we identify, create, capture, monitor and measure the value created. It is crucial for us to listen to our customers’ feedback and also to address their expectations. We always work in collaboration with our customers and adopt a proactive approach.
Trusted Technology
Almost 30 years ago, we partnered with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) to create our best-in-class PECOS technology – a unique cloud-based data-driven eProcurement solution. As a technology company, it is critical for us to understand how customers feel when they use our solutions and interact with our brands.
Source to Pay Automation
Evolve S2P is an all-in-one flexible solution that can be easily tailored to any sector-specific requirement. Initially, custom-designed for healthcare, it has helped multiple healthcare organisations, included NHS England, to reduce system fragmentation and ease collaboration within organisations.
Tailored Solutions
Unlike most procurement systems, which force users to adapt to them, we at ELCOM adapt our technology to you. Think of our technology as simple to use, easy to implement: no hassles, no worries. Our solutions are being used in organisations as diverse as governments, administration agencies, emergency services, medical facilities, universities and schools.
Healthcare
Hospitals benefit from a single procurement source of truth, EVOLVE S2P, eliminating waste and redundancy. In addition, Primary and Community Care use our Equipment Solution (CES) to deliver healthcare equipment and services to patients at home.

Full Integration
Buyers benefit from more efficient management of the spend to lower costs and risk while suppliers maximise their sales opportunities with greater efficiency and transparency. Consequently, organisations improve their productivity freeing up time to focus on strategic activities.
Customers’ Feedback
The voice of our customers plays a crucial role in our approach to technology innovation and to determine whether our products and services exceed our customers’ expectations. As loyal partners, we establish a close relationship with our customers and we are fully committed to delivering high-standard solutions and services.
South West London Collaborative
Jon Beeson, Head of Procurement at South West London Collaborative shares his positive experience about how Evolve solution supports their efforts of bringing together four hospital trusts.
“Across South West London we have the problem of bringing together four hospital trusts with different systems and approaches. The first stage in the journey has been to align Sourcing and Contract Management and Inventory using Evolve. This is accelerating the standardisation of contracts and collaborative projects through shared data and common systems whilst providing real-time track and trace and excellent patient costing and reporting provided through a Clinician focussed experience.”
UCL Partners Procurement Service
Mick Corti, Director at UCL Partners Procurement Services shares his positive experience about how Evolve solution supports their efforts to develop true integrated shared services.
“Each of our member trusts has retained its own financial system, so we have had to develop interfaces synchronising static and transactional data between the cloud procurement system and these local finance solutions. True integrated shared services, with a common systems infrastructure, is rare among groups of NHS Trusts and we would not have got to the point we are now at, for instance with common operational buying and helpdesk teams across our customers, if it were not for the Evolve solution.”
