By bringing these products and services together a number of key customer
benefits can be realized:
Improved supplier bid quality. Communicate requirements (drawings,
models) and specifications unambiguously and earlier in the design
phase (early supplier involvement - ESI).
Reduced development costs due to fewer design and procurement
iterations enabled by a collaborative and shared workspace on a
commerce network that supports integrated engineering and procurement
processes (RFI/RFQ/RFP, ECO).
Reduced travel. Enable virtual design reviews that bring together
the experts from distributed geographic locations earlier in the
design phase to use the CPDP platform in an asynchronous and
synchronous manner to resolve product issues quickly.
Improved time-to-market by enabling the entire outsourced
design chain and supply chain to work more efficiently.
Product cost reduction. Analyze cost reduction in a collaborative
session with the suppliers through early supplier involvement (ESI).
