Marketplaces Are Dead – Long Live the Mall!
You can engage in purchasing in your own corporate supermarket, with all your favorites and optimized conditions – that is, your own catalog system. In the Kiosk, you can procure for yourself your individual desires and minor needs. In addition to this, for an extensive selection of standard materials from countless brand suppliers, you can go into the Mall. Not individually, not personally, not optimized for you – but with an enormous selection.
You can either just take a look in the Mall at what is being offered. This is called “Basic Content”. Or you can directly start purchasing without negotiating your price. Simply as offered. At good, but perhaps not best, prices (the Mall must also still make a profit). This is what is referred to as a “Basic Contract”.
From the community of excellence: selected, established suppliers – ready-to-order
The Mall is integrated into your e-procurement landscape as an individual supplier shop. You simply specify the rules and authorizations for your users, and it can be let loose. An enormous selection over almost everything that was ever catalogued. The benchmark services and the Metrics technology ensure transparency regarding market prices and an updated optimization on your behalf.
Do you want to, with one link, integrate hundreds of suppliers and spare yourself the trouble of price discussions? Then the Mall is the platform for you.
