Commerce is complex. The system of transactions required to bring a single new product to market can touch dozens of countries and hundreds of suppliers. Companies are sourcing from increasingly complex and diverse supplier communities, which complicates trading partner management and overall supply chain visibility. These business challenges: too many systems and lack of integration, too many manual, error-prone, and inconsistent processes, and the inability to effectively manage relationships and improve performance due to lack of visibility. During the session, you will find out how IBM's Smarter Commerce strategy addresses these business challenges and can help optimize electrical distributor, supplier, and partner interactions based on changes in buying behavior across the supply chain. The Smarter Commerce strategy also enables electrical industry customers' and partners' engagement so they can shop, exchange information, and collaborate across all touch points. Come find out how to align your business model with your customer needs, and build an agile business designed to serve ever-changing customers and market conditions.
