Maya, the owner of a rapidly growing e-commerce business with ~500 SKUs, faced significant challenges managing a complex network of 20 suppliers. Some suppliers manufactured individual components of products with multiple stages of assembly, while others produced completed products. Each supplier relationship was unique, making finding a holistic purchasing solution more challenging.
Maya's primary challenge was not just liaising with multiple suppliers but also planning and consolidating shipments efficiently. With different suppliers having varying lead times and order requirements, organizing purchase orders was complex. Previously, Maya managed this manually, storing product data and records in physical folders, leading to inefficiencies and scalability issues.
