Successfully onboard suppliers via Portal or electronic interface
We help you optimize your supply chain and do not stop until successfull
- Our approach ensures that, on average, 80%-90% of suppliers are onboarded within a few months.
- The success of Tradecloud is (partly) determined by the level of supplier adoption, which is why guiding and successfully onboarding the first group of suppliers is a key part of the project. We commit to making this a success.
- Not every supplier is the same, so together we create a plan to onboard suppliers step-by-step based on volume and complexity, using various methods.
- Suppliers can join via the portal (within 5 minutes and free of charge) or choose to integrate with their own ERP system.
- Tradecloud provides materials to easily and quickly onboard suppliers yourself.
- Many thousands of parties are already connected to the Tradecloud platform (directly or indirectly via other networks).
Supplier Onboarding
5 steps plan
-
Establish a “Supplier Onboarding Team”.
-
Match suppliers with existing Tradecloud or SCSN users and approach these parties.
-
Group the supplier base based on volume, complexity, and ‘quick wins’.
-
Approach and train suppliers (letter, video, online instructions).
-
Onboard suppliers in groups with support from the Tradecloud customer success manager.
Involve key suppliers first
Our experience tells us that the most successful method is to start with approx. 10 portal suppliers. This delivers quick initial success without technical complications. After these first successes, the next step is to connect some high volume suppliers with direct ERP integration.
