Sourcing processes have become increasingly more complex. More parties are involved in the process; multiple suppliers, shipping companies, freight forwarders and customs agents, all with different inputs in the sourcing process.

viisConnect Supplier Collaboration reduces your costs of sourcing by ensuring that everyone knows all details and conversations held during the sourcing process.

There are many processes that occur in a sourcing process before an order can be placed. Product design, costing, ability to supply, ability to manufacture to cost and freight options are but a few. Our Supplier Collaboration solution helps you handle all of these processes.

Purchasing systems manage the purchasing process after the order has been placed. Supplier Collaboration manages the process after the order has been raised by managing the milestones that will ensure the order arrives on time.

All conversations are held in the systems and this ensures that no Intellectual Property is lost when key people leave the sourcing process as a new person can easily pickup the status of all purchases.
