B2B Portal Development
Since 1989, ScienceSoft has been implementing successful solutions for customers in 47 countries worldwide. With a strong 14 year experience in development of B2B portals and 250+ top-notch projects completed, our team will find a reliable approach to your business objectives. We will take you over the entire software development life cycle and provide a powerful tool for effective online presence.
The on-going shift to B2B e-commerce is triggered by extended functionality of automated systems that allow businesses to streamline business processes, ensure secure transactions and enrich marketing strategy with new methods and tactics.
Cooperation Models
Development from scratch
ScienceSoft’s team will guide you through the whole development process (Discovery & Analysis, Development & Testing, and Maintenance & Support) and provide a comprehensive solution with a unique design according to your needs and vision.
Development based on the existing requirements specification
We focus on your description of what has to be done, including functional/non-functional requirements, a batch of use cases, as well as integration with other systems, and develop the solution that addresses your specific concerns.
Legacy portal redevelopment
Our experts will fix an existing system, enhance its architecture, seamlessly implement new elements and arrange safe data migration.
After the portal is launched, our team will continue maintaining and supporting the B2B portal software to ensure its high relevance in the future.
B2B Portals We Develop
Depending on the objectives sought, ScienceSoft’s team offer the following portal modifications for your business.
According to the roles the owners take on:
- Buy-side. A single big buyer or a group of buyers operate a portal and thereby can engage themselves in purchasing and reverse auctions, benefit from e-procurement methods (e-tendering, e-sourcing, e-MRO) and avoid maverick buying.
- Sell-side. These are B2B portals owned by one big seller or a group of sellers who look for potential buyers online. A supplier-oriented application contributes immensely to the company’s recognition and customer retention, as well as opens new trade options (such as auctions). Buyers take advantage of supplier directories, as they get access to comprehensive information on profiles of suppliers and related products and services.
- Independent. This type of B2B portals is controlled by a party not exactly involved in the transaction process. Such a portal provides much space for collaborative business processes through secure buyer-seller qualification, integration with multiple internal systems of its members, industry analysis, bid coordination and escrow service.
According to the portal content:
- Vertical trade portals. Our team design an online working site that links all supply chain segments of one industry or industry sector. Such portals enhance your operating efficiency, lower intermediary costs and considerably reduce order cycle time.
- Horizontal trade portals. ScienceSoft will develop an architecture of a huge open market with advanced search options, which concentrates on a service, material or a product, bringing together buyers and sellers from different industries in both domestic and international markets.
