Vendor Portals Drive Vendor Management

Why your organization needs vendor portals

Vendor portals (supplier portals) can be a powerful tool in enabling a vendor self-service based vendor management program in your organization. The functionality can provide tremendous benefits to your procurement and purchasing operations as well the finance and accounts payable departments.  By leveraging the flexibility of a supplier portal, or vendor portal, companies can automate non-value add processes and enable vendors to collaborate with your organization on-line, 24×7 from anywhere in the world.

A vendor portal (or supplier portal) refers to a portal that allows vendors to access payment information and submit necessary information in the form of documents or data. The portal is also the vehicle where the buying company can provide documents and data to the vendor related to transactions between the two organizations.  The reality is that vendor portals provide a very wide range of functionality that allows buying and selling companies to collaborate, communicate, and transact in a highly efficient manner. 

The supplier portal is in and of itself just the mechanism that allows an efficient manner for buyers and sellers to work together and insure healthy supply chains for the buying company.  The real advantage of these portal based tools is the wide functionality and level of collaboration that can be built into these supplier portals, targeted toyour specific needs.
