global business directories

Overview

The Achilles global business directories provide an overview of suppliers by sector registered across multiple Achilles Supplier Management Systems around the world. These directories focus on specific industry sectors such as Utilities or Oil & Gas. The directories provide summary level data to their users.

Background

Buyers require easy sourcing methods to discover suppliers in different regions. Increasingly buying organisations are becoming interested in sourcing from different regions to exploit price/value/quality/choice differentials. Furthermore product shortages in certain areas due to limited regional suppliers are forcing buyers to look more widely. The Global Business Directory provides access to view summary details of all suppliers registered with Achilles across a sector, worldwide.
