VendorNet Connection User Conference
We attended VendorNet’s conference at the beginning of this month to present a speech and a roundtable on Vendor Compliance Policies. The speech covered:
• Role of vendor compliance in reducing costs and speeding receipts through the DC
• Trends in vendor compliance
• Contents of vendor compliance manuals
• What charge backs companies are implementing
• Where to begin in writing vendor compliance policies
• Who should be involved
• Communication between the retailer and the vendor community
For those of you who don’t know VendorNet (www.vendornet.com), their 100 percent Web-based software solution, VendorNet Commerce Suite, delivers high-speed retailer/supplier collaboration via the Internet, providing real-time transaction visibility to standardize, synchronize, and optimize the flow of order information among supply chain partners.
F. Curtis Barry & Company does not normally endorse vendor software products. But I have to tell you, the customers at the conference clearly felt like VendorNet has a great product. There were a number of actual merchandise vendors at the conference and I had a chance to talk with some of them. Guess what? The vendors love the VendorNet products and services too. Some talked about using other systems that weren’t nearly as straightforward. They liked the ability to follow up on work, and for their clients to communicate messages and status to each other.
The VendorNet user community includes Ballard Designs, Miles Kimball, Exposures, Neiman Marcus, Thompson and Company catalog group, Asset Marketing Services, Norm Thompson, and many others.
My hat is off to Sharon Gardner, co-founder and president, and the staff for an effective conference and great systems and services.
