Analysts tout buyer and seller collaboration as the major aspiration of B2B e-commerce, but what does that actually mean? Two industry-leading Ariba customers – buyer and seller trading partners – explain how no-touch/low-touch collaboration on procure-to-pay and order-to-cash processes has reduced IT costs and manual work. This business process integration has helped AGCO gain more visibility and control in a multiple ERP environment, while also helping SHI International increase key operational and top-line metrics by more than 20 percent.

Notes de l'éditeur
- From Aberdeen Report: Supplier Networks v 2.0, dated April 201245% of supplier credentials and compliance documents exchanged on the network, which is 80% more than Laggards 46% use online supplier discovery over the supplier network, which is 60% more than Laggards. 60% of purchase orders are transmitted electronically through a supplier network, which is 62% more than Laggards From Aberdeen Report: AP Invoice Management in a Network Economy, dated May 2012 An average of 26% of BIC utilize some form of electronic invoice means such as Electronic Invoice Network, Procurement network with support for Electronic Invoices or Supplier Portals, which is and average of 3 times more than Laggards.
- First and foremost is the idea of optimizing supplier collaboration (41%), which hinges on the ability to understand how to effectively communicate with suppliers and to optimize efficiency, accuracy and profitability. This collaboration starts with understanding supplier needs and priorities in allocating the proper resources with the buying organizations using supplier networks. If proper planning efforts are made, both buyers and suppliers can take advantage of integration infrastructure to accept and receive documents from one another in achieving a common goal of increasing commerce efficiency. Second, using a supplier network encourages suppliers to increase transactions in an automated electronic basis especially, P2P based transactions such as purchase orders, payments and change orders. For example, 72% of respondents indicated they are using purchase orders through a supplier network, 59% use invoices and 54% use change orders. As adoption looks to be increasing for supplier networks, electronic processes being considered in the next year include many non-transaction based areas such as sharing of compliance documents (e.g. sustainability, conflict minerals, other regulatory documents) (31%), use of sourcing/RFPs (25%) and dynamic discounting strategies (24%). Third, through the use of supplier networks, organizations create an audit trail of transaction activity that can be used for increasing transparency into a specific process status that can ultimately result in reduced costs and increased efficiencies (i.e. identifying where a payment is, finding an order number, recognizing a supplier ID). In terms of reduced cost, the cost to complete a single requisition to order cycle in ($USD) was $33.45 for those not using a supplier network compared to $22.30 for those using a supplier network. In terms of efficiency, the average number of days to complete a requisition to order cycle averaged 15.5 days for those not using a supplier network versus 11.2 days for those using one.
- In addition to higher revenue and ROI, BIC respondents experienced notably better benefits from their e-commerce efforts than non-BIC companies in various qualitative areas (shown on Chart 2), including: Enhanced Customer Satisfaction: 84.6 percent of BIC companies reported that their online and e-commerce capabilities had improved customer satisfaction somewhat or greatly (50 percent said greatly) as opposed to 52.9 percent of others (only 15.1 percent of whom said greatly). In terms of the actual percentage realized—i.e., the degree to which customer satisfaction actually increased—BICs experienced a 57.7 percent gain, whereas others saw just a 26.7 percent improvement.Greater Customer Traction: 46.2 percent of BIC companies experienced an improvement in customer retention as a result of their e-commerce and online capabilities versus 20.1 percent of others, while the actual percentage of improvement was 48.3 percent for BICs as opposed to 35.1 percent for other companies.Higher Productivity in Sales and Account Management: A total of 34.6 percent of BICs stated that e-commerce had boosted their sales/account management productivity, whereas only 25.3 percent of others experienced a similar gain. While improvements in other categories were not as dramatic, BICs consistently reported a higher level of benefits than less mature organizations, bearing out the importance of a more comprehensive e-commerce strategy in driving greater overall ROI.
