SC-Manager: The control center for your purchasing

The SC Manager serves as a central information and control center for purchasing. It links all relevant information, optimizes processes through smart workflows and continuously monitors them to provide early warning of deviations. In addition, the SC Manager controls communication with suppliers and ensures clear reporting that guarantees transparency in all phases of the purchasing process. This makes digital supplier management the basis for controlling the global supply chain.

The supplier lifecycle: an overview of all phases

The supplier lifecycle describes the various phases of collaboration with your suppliers. With SC-Manager, you can effectively control each of these phases, supported by the integrated supplier portal. This portal allows suppliers to be directly integrated into the processes, ensuring seamless and efficient communication.

  • Supplier file: a clear tab structure for managing all documents and data.
  • Document and certificate management: Structured administration and easy tracking of all relevant documents such as certificates, insurance policies and contracts.
  • Process and workflow control: Automated processes supported by traffic light systems for a quick overview of the status.
  • Transparency through KPIs and dashboards: Intuitive dashboards and reports for a clear presentation of key performance indicators.
  • Information management: Flexible search functions and appealing visualization make it easier to find and interpret information.

Supply chain communication: Global networking in real time

The SC-Manager supplier portal transforms your supply chain into a global information, process and communication platform. This digitizes and optimizes supplier relationships over the entire lifecycle. Processes that previously required many manual steps, such as phone calls and e-mails, are now automated through intelligently controlled workflows. This includes the exchange of information and documents, automatic data processing and continuous reporting.

Onboarding: Efficient supplier integration

The onboarding of new suppliers is seamless thanks to the supplier portal. SC-Manager guides you through the entire process, from self-registration to qualification as a supplier. Workflow-driven self-assessments, questionnaires and document uploads facilitate integration and ensure transparency and efficiency.

Classification: Strategic assignment of your suppliers

The SC-Manager supports you in classifying your suppliers according to your strategic needs and the supplier's product groups. Category management and article management ensure transparency here. Algorithms are used to divide suppliers into internal and external classes and evaluate them. Detailed dashboards provide you with a clear overview of the classification.

Collaboration: Effective collaboration with suppliers

SC-Manager makes it significantly easier to work with your suppliers on a daily basis. The supplier portal is used to efficiently process RFQs, tenders, purchase orders and complaints. Workflow-controlled processes ensure seamless communication and significantly reduce the administrative workload.

Supplier rating: Objective performance analysis

A well-founded supplier evaluation is crucial for the long-term success of your supply chain. SC-Manager enables a methodical assessment of supplier performance using a weighted scorecard. Both hard facts (e.g. document data) and soft facts (e.g. survey results) are taken into account to ensure a holistic evaluation. The integrated action management also enables proactive optimization of supplier relationships.

Risk & Compliance: 360-degree management

The SC-Manager's risk and compliance scorecard allows you to keep an eye on all risks. Internal and external information is combined into a clear 360-degree management system. Flexible scorecards and comprehensive dashboards support you in sustainable risk management and in meeting compliance requirements.

Supplier development: Targeted support for your partners

Supplier development is systematically supported by SC-Manager. Integrated measures and comprehensive audit management enable targeted planning and administration of supplier audits. Clear status displays and automatic notifications increase transparency and improve compliance with deadlines.

Conclusion: SC-Manager as the key to success

With SC-Manager, Simmeth System offers a powerful purchasing management solution that covers all phases of the supplier lifecycle. The central information and communication platform ensures optimized collaboration with suppliers, increases process efficiency and creates the transparency needed to successfully manage the global supply chain. In an increasingly digital world, SC-Manager is the key to sustainable and efficient purchasing management.
