Cooperation Models We Offer

Vendor portal development from scratch

We cover end-to-end development of supplier portals:

  • Elicit vendor portal requirements.
  • Write a requirements specification.
  • Create UX/UI design.
  • Develop and test your new vendor portal software.
  • Integrate with your or your vendors’ software and third-party tools.
  • Conduct IT staff and end-user training.

Platform-based vendor portal development

  • Platform choice (Dynamics 365, Salesforce, SharePoint).
  • Platform-based vendor portal planning and design.
  • Platform-based vendor portal development and customization.
  • Platform-based vendor portal integration with custom/third-party tools.
  • Vendor portal migration between platforms or to the latest platform version.

Vendor portal development based on ready specifications

Our web developers build supplier portal software rigidly following the provided specifications about intended functionality.

Legacy vendor portal modernization

We enhance the performance of your existing solution, ensure its smooth integration with elements and 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.

Challenges We Solve

Troublesome ERP integration

The integration of the portal with ERP system is often long, complicated and painful process. But if you want to get truly automated business processes, reduce a great volume of routine manual actions and track relevant info on the business needs, a deep ERP integration is essential for your B2B Vendor portal, thus we ensure seamless integration with this internal system for you to get the most of the new solution.

Big and slow solution

As vendors differ in size, offering and collaboration model, to avoid unnecessary complexity, we keep what suits exactly for your business. Moreover, we can introduce various vendor account options, e.g. you can provide limited functionality for your minor vendors or integrate with the internal systems of your key suppliers.

Buyer-vendor communication failure

As any communication gap may cause massive loses (imagine a delivery delay notification being lost), we ensure that you’re kept up-to-date and nothing is left unnoticed with automated alerts, notification and live charts.
