About GN Store Nord

GN Store Nord is a global leader in intelligent audio and video solutions, with innovative offerings spanning enterprise headsets, medical-grade hearing aids, and devices for gaming and consumer applications. Operating in a fast-moving, innovation-driven industry, GN requires agility, precision, and supplier coordination at scale.

Challenges

  • Unmanageable Supply Chain Complexity: An expanding supplier base and increasing sourcing activity made Excel-based processes unsustainable.
  • Fragmented Global Teams: With procurement spread across three time zones, it was critical to unify systems, data, and communication.
  • Inconsistent Supplier Information: Teams needed a “single source of truth” for supplier data to make fast, informed decisions.
  • Manual Processes & Data Errors: Without automation, sourcing processes were subject to delays, mistakes, and missed opportunities.

Benefits

  • High user adoption: More sourcing projects launched weekly

  • Data-Driven Procurement: Enhanced visibility into supplier performance and risk allows teams to detect and fix data quality issues early—keeping sourcing workflows running smoothly.
