To get your extended supply chain up and running, TradeCard organizes a working session that brings together all the
stakeholders to develop a coordinated implementation plan. With a project scaled to meet the agreed upon goals, the
project can be as simple as online registration and transactions, or more integrated approaches to achieve increased
efficiencies in processes, systems and financial product offerings.
- Internal Operational Adoption- We start by analyzing your trading business processes and mapping them to
TradeCard. We devise custom training to make sure your people gain the skills to drive maximum efficiency from
TradeCard.
- Trading partner adoption - TradeCard has extensive experience in rolling out its service to a buyer and its
trading community. TradeCard has offices and partners around the world that conduct in-person visits with suppliers
or organize supplier seminars to introduce and then train the suppliers. TradeCard will work with you to devise a
plan to make sure your trading partners adopt TradeCard too.
- Technical IT integration - Our flexible web-based system can easily integrate with your ERP system via your
current messaging architecture (XML, EDI, other) or you can access TradeCard directly by logging in from your
browser. Today, 97% of all orders entered on TradeCard are submitted via messaging. The TradeCard integration models
include interfaces with buyers, suppliers, banks, logistics companies, and other third party service providers.
TradeCard Implementations are fast . . .In 2002 and 2003, the average implementation time for all
of the above was 45 days.
TradeCard Implementations are low cost . . . Because there is no hardware to buy, no software to
install, and a short implementation time, implementations do not represent a large investment.
TradeCard Implementations do not require a large amount of internal resources . . . We leverage
existing systems and scale the project to the size of the business anticipated.
