Presentation: "Collaboration with your Suppliers"
Speaker: Bill O'Connor, Oracle

Oracle iSupplier Portal is a powerful self-service collaborative platform allowing transactional communication with your suppliers. Even low-tech suppliers can have 7 x 24 real time access to data that relates to them, from delivery of the PO, to receipt, and finally through payment. Suppliers can immediately respond to events in the purchasing, planning and payment processes, which provide an unparalleled level of service. Suppliers can acknowledge PO's, alert you to upcoming shipments by posting Advance Shipment Notices (ASNs), enter invoices, etc. Increase internal resource productivity by reducing the volume of phone calls from suppliers.
