What role does improved data visibility play?
Effective supplier management has become a chief concern in recent years. Now, thanks to open business networks connecting organizations worldwide, its importance is at an all-time high. This connectivity creates opportunity to transact with best-fit suppliers, but also leaves businesses susceptible to risk.
Sami Peltonen, VP of P2P Solutions at Basware, is joined by Lauri Mähönen, Head of Business Development at Bisnode, to explore the many challenges faced by organizations who fail to implement effective supplier risk management.
Sami provides insight into how Basware is responding to this in its product development and Lauri performs a deep dive into how Bisnode customers are using Dun & Bradstreet data to improve understanding of their supplier risk.
In this session we discuss:
-
What's the best and most cost-effective way to keep my basic supplier data up-to-date and complete?
-
How can I gain a better understanding of the level of risk my suppliers are introducing to my business?
-
How do I gain greater visibility to best consolidate my supplier base and review their performance?
