The Challenge
Glostrup Municipality faced growing pressure to simplify and modernise its approach to public procurement. The existing setup was weighed down by manual workflows, inconsistent processes and a lack of visibility across contracts and suppliers. The procurement team needed a solution that could bring everything together in one place, improve compliance and make life easier for users throughout the organisation.
It also had to work for both central procurement specialists and the many decentralised users across departments. The new system had to be intuitive enough to use without extensive training and flexible enough to evolve alongside the municipality’s changing needs.
Tellis® has proved to be a highly user friendly system that integrates smoothly into our daily workflows. We look forward to using it to streamline procurement and strengthen our processes.

The Solution
With Tellis®, Glostrup Municipality now has a procurement platform that combines structure with flexibility. The solution was rolled out with a clear focus on simplicity, relevance and automation of core tasks. It was configured to show users only approved and up to date products and services, reducing errors and supporting compliance with framework agreements.
One of the key features is catalogue management and PunchOut integration, allowing employees to shop directly from supplier webshops. Products, pricing and shopping carts are synced automatically with Tellis®, ensuring full traceability without compromising the user experience.
The system supports decentralised purchasing while keeping procurement teams in control via dashboards and reporting tools that offer clear insight into spending and opportunities for optimisation.
Working closely with Glostrup, Intellis tailored the platform to fit the municipality’s structure and workflows. A smooth onboarding process and intuitive design made it possible to implement the solution quickly and without disruption.
The Result
With Tellis®, Glostrup has gained a solution that not only improves procurement but also strengthens collaboration across departments. Users now experience a smoother day to day workflow where the system helps guide them, rather than getting in the way. At the same time, leadership has gained better insight into procurement data and can follow up with accurate KPIs.
Improved compliance means the municipality is better protected against incorrect purchases and unintentional breaches of contract. The platform also enables more strategic and sustainable purchasing by making it easier to choose approved suppliers and products.
Choosing Tellis® has given Glostrup Municipality a solid foundation for smarter procurement. And with Intellis as a long term partner, the municipality benefits from continuous platform development and new features that support its strategy today, and in the future.
