RS Components Leverages simple system for streamlined procurement

The challenge

'When optimising indirect procurement, customers don't just want to become more efficient. This process often also leads to the consolidation of suppliers. To be at an advantage here, we have to offer our customers the simplest possible ordering processes, for example. At the same time, the direct relationship with the customer must not be lost. After all, individual advice and good service are also important criteria for customers when deciding who will ultimately prevail as a supplier.'

For RS Components, simple system is a strategic partner that helps us to be on the winning side of the current trend towards consolidating supplier relationships. In addition, there are clear synergies and advantages for the benefit of our joint customers:

• Strengthening of the digital sales channel in Germany and in European expansion
• Close and trusting collaboration and direct access to platform experts
• Optimisation and digitalisation of the company's own sales process

The fact that RS Components decided to work with simple system was also due to the procurement platform's customer coverage. There is a large, common overlap here. This allows the company to benefit from the eProcurement provider's customer base and sales activities. Every company that wants to handle its procurement via the platform can access the RS Components catalogues simply and easily.
