Company Profile on the Marketplace? [Buyer/Supplier]

This article will explain the Company Profile in the Marketplace and outline the steps to set up your company profile.

Company Profile Overview

In the Asite Marketplace, every user is associated with the company they work for. Each company has a dedicated profile in the directory, which serves as a central place for all information related to that organisation.

  • This profile includes key details such as company information, services offered, and relevant classifications and categories.

  • Users are represented within the Marketplace through their company’s directory presence, rather than as individual entities.

Parent-Subsidiary hierarchies

Marketplace also supports Parent-Subsidiary hierarchies, allowing multiple Buyer organisations to operate under a single Parent Buyer. This provides a shared Supplier and Trading Partner repository, along with shared qualification, Supplier Relationship Management (SRM), and Supplier Performance Management (SPM) information, while allowing each Buyer to maintain independent procurement activities where required.

The hierarchy helps enterprise organisations reduce duplicate Supplier records, maintain consistent Supplier information, and give Parent Buyers greater visibility across their Subsidiaries. To enable Parent-Subsidiary hierarchies on the Marketplace, contact support@asite.com.
