How does Vinimaya’s ViniSyndicate Catalog Integration System™ solve these problems?
ViniSyndicate™ addresses the five (5) specific, related problems listed above as follows: ViniSyndicate™ INCREASES USER ADOPTION (Problem #1) by providing a SINGLE CONSISTANT USER INTERFACE (Problem #2) to all catalogs whether locally stored in the e-procurement system database or online at a supplier’s web site. Common user complaints like “I’ve been clicking for 10 minutes and I still can’t find what I need”, or ” I can’t compare products across suppliers”, or “it’s too hard to use, I get lost in the system” will become a thing of the past. Also, ViniSyndicate™ has greatly simplified the supplier’s requirements. They don’t have to support XML “punchout”! They don’t have to provide catalog files, graphics, MSDS sheets! All they need is an online catalog; most suppliers can meet this requirement today! Waiting for MISSING CATALOGS OR SKUs (Problem #3) and LACK OF SUPPLER CAPABILITY AND/OR COOPERATION (Problem #4) are no longer issues because ViniSyndicate™ can get everything right from
