The simplified process now requires only three steps for plastics buyers to initiate orders with one or multiple suppliers using a single online order template.
Coupled with the Omnexus e-marketplace's new UltraLite technology, which allows companies to upload their order files to their suppliers' order systems and avoid double entry, Omnexus presents a complete solution for companies transitioning from traditional order methods to online procurement.
"The Omnexus eMarketplace's simplified three-step order process will significantly improve the buyer's experience, in great part due to the valued input of current Omnexus customers and suppliers who participated in our user experience project", said Michael J Walsh, interim CEO, Omnexus.
"The new order system allows our current customers a greater ease of navigation and flexibility throughout the order process".
Buyers using the Omnexus e-marketplace will benefit from several enhancements to the order system, including: a simplified, three-step order process, with substantially reduced mouse clicks and screens; change order capabilities, initiated by the buyer; enhanced order processing options, including automatic order creation and submission features; easy search functionality that lets buyers quickly find their orders; and extensive online reporting features, showing real-time status of all submitted orders.
