Maximize Supplier Collaboration and Procurement Performance
Featuring Gartner Research
Published March 2014
Featuring research from Gartner, this brief investigates:
- How supplier portals generate costs savings through automation
- Expert recommendations on how to leverage portals to increase trading partner collaboration and reduce supplier risk
- How Leggett & Platt used Amber Road’s Supplier Portal solution to improve visibility over origin and supplier operations, reduce cycle times, streamline broker operations and reduce broker fees
A multitude of forces drive today’s need for greater inbound supply chain visibility and improved supplier collaboration. Complexity from multiple trading partners, international sourcing and heightened customer expectations makes it difficult to see what’s happening, and can jeopardize a company’s effectiveness in managing critical supplier activities.
Gartner research found that organizations that are not using portals to connect trading partners lack the visibility to leverage opportunities to collaborate. Supply chain, finance, procurement and sourcing leaders can use this to start benefiting from the use of supplier portals.
