Help customers identify the right product.

When products are technical, product knowledge is part of the buying experience.
Customers may start with a manufacturer part number, product code, specification, application or physical requirement. Others need to narrow a large range until they arrive at a product suitable for what they are trying to do.

The easier it is to identify the right product, the easier you are to buy from.

 

EXPLORE PRODUCT DISCOVERY
Search by what customers know

 

Help customers search using product names, codes, part numbers and other information relevant to how products are identified.

 

Narrow complex technical ranges

 

Use product attributes, filters and guided selection to help customers narrow a range around the characteristics that matter.

 

Give customers the information they need

 

Bring specifications, technical information, documentation, product variations and compatibility information into the product journey.

 

Help customers consider alternatives

 

Present related, compatible or alternative products where those relationships help customers make the right choice.

 

Make everyday trade purchasing straightforward.

Once customers know what they need, routine purchasing shouldn't require a phone call or email every time.
Give established trade customers an online experience that reflects the commercial relationship you already have with them.
Make the routine easy while keeping your people available for requirements that need their expertise.

 

EXPLORE B2B CAPABILITIES
Customer-specific products & pricing 

 

Present the products, ranges, prices, quantity breaks and terms relevant to each customer.

 

Quotations

 

Support customers whose purchasing journey involves quotations alongside everyday ecommerce ordering.

Repeat Purchasing 

 

Make frequent ordering quicker through previous purchases, saved products and other repeat-ordering tools appropriate to the relationship.

Account self-service

 

Give customers appropriate access to orders, quotations and account information, reducing the need for your team to handle every routine enquiry manually.

 

Support customers buying across sites and teams.

Some industrial customers need more than a conventional trade account.
Products may be purchased across different sites, engineering teams and maintenance departments. Organisations may need control over who can buy, which products are available and how purchasing is approved.
Make ecommerce fit the way customers procure, consume and replenish products.

 

 



EXPLORE B2B ORDERING PORTALSEXPLORE PUNCHOUT
Users, sites and purchasing control

 

Support multiple users and sites alongside approved products, budgets, allowances and approval processes where the customer relationship requires greater control.

 

Replenishment and Vendor Managed Inventory

 

Where agreed products are held at customer locations, Vendor Managed Inventory can support a more structured replenishment model.

 

Connect with customer procurement

 

Where a customer's purchasing process starts inside its own procurement system, Punchout and eProcurement can provide another route into the wider ecommerce operation.

 

Industrial & engineering ecommerce in practice.

Digital when it's easy. Expertise when it matters.

Industrial and engineering suppliers often compete through product knowledge as well as price and availability.
Ecommerce doesn't need to remove that expertise from the relationship.
Let customers search technical ranges, place repeat orders and take care of routine account tasks themselves.
Keep experienced sales and customer-service people involved when product selection, quotations or unusual requirements benefit from their knowledge.
That gives customers convenient self-service without forcing every purchase into the same journey.
Self-service for the routine. Expertise for the exception.
