Networks
Connecting buyers and suppliers, streamlining procurement and raising standards.
Driven by insight
Tried. Tested. Trusted.
No business is an island. No matter how well you know your industry, no matter how precisely you meet the demands of your customer base, to maintain your success you need a network of partners that meet those same high standards.
Finding these partners doesn’t have to take huge amounts of time, effort or money – as long as you have plenty of what matters most: insight.
Our networks bring together rigorously pre-qualified suppliers with buyers working in the same regions and industries. For the buyers, that means they can drive procurement with decisions that are backed up by detailed, relevant, up-to-date information about potential suppliers – and maintain this transparency throughout their relationship. For the supplier, it’s an opportunity to benchmark performance, improve practices and deepen their understanding of their industry’s buyers.
Business performance
A better way to buy. A simpler way to sell.
From validating questionnaires to carrying out on-site inspections, our 400-strong validation and auditing team work tirelessly to confirm the credentials and compliance of every supplier listed in our communities. Once suppliers are registered, they can become eligible for a whole world of contract opportunities – without going through multiple pre-qualification processes.
In our communities, suppliers become more visible to buyers. And because of the data we make available, they’re more transparent too. That means buyers can make quicker, better-informed purchasing decisions.
