DRB-HICOM Group has officially onboarded onto Lapasar, bringing procurement transformation across its diverse ecosystem of companies. The initiative is focused on two key outcomes: ✅ Making long-tail spend faster, better and more cost-effective ✅ Increasing procurement efficiency and governance across all subsidiaries By digitising indirect procurement through a unified platform, DRB-HICOM teams can reduce manual work, improve spend visibility, streamline approvals, and enable procurement professionals to focus on strategic value creation rather than administrative processing. A significant step forward in modernising enterprise procurement across one of Malaysia’s most diversified conglomerates.
