VendorConnect for inriver PIM
A collaborative vendor onboarding portal
VendorConnect is a robust, collaborative vendor portal developed by Aperture Labs, a leading inriver solutions partner.
Designed to simplify the ingestion and management of product data from an unlimited number of vendors, VendorConnect operates seamlessly within the inriver platform, improving efficiency and control over vendor relationships.
The challenge for retailers and distributors.
Manually onboarding product data from hundreds, or even thousands, of suppliers can be a daunting task. Incomplete or inaccurate supplier information forces teams to waste valuable time tracking down details and correcting errors, ultimately delaying time to market.
By centralizing supplier data collection in a single portal inside of inriver PIM, teams can focus on what truly matters - getting products with complete and accurate data to market faster.

Vendors can track submission status in real time and receive feedback on rejections for continuous improvement.
