The Business Network
Connecting Companies
The Business Network is Hubwoo’s open collaborative business platform, a digital B2B marketplace with over one million active businesses. It leverages three of the most pervasive technology drivers of the 21st century – community, search, and ratings – on top of a leading platform of enterprise-class B2B commerce.
The Business Network provides a smarter way for buyers and sellers to search, connect, and collaborate in an electronic ecosystem. We believe in openness and value for all parties involved, which means we impose no excessive taxes on your supply chain like other networks do.
For Buyers
As a buyer, The Business Network becomes the central hub for your sourcing, procurement and accounts payable activities, bringing spend under management to new heights, driving incremental cost savings and efficiencies through:
- Supplier discovery: search across a global pool of qualified suppliers for improved matching of buyer needs and greater negotiated savings
- An intuitive, consumer-like catalog management and search solution, dramatically increasing user adoption, compliance and on-contract spend for both goods and services
- Master Data Exchange, which links your on-premise business systems to the cloud, increasing information accuracy and reducing your data administration efforts
- 100% electronic invoice management, and supplier self-service for invoice & payment status, freeing your accounts payable teams for strategic tasks
- Hubwoo does not impose excessive taxes on your suppliers as other networks do, eliminating knock on effects such as increased catalog prices and supplier enablement difficulties
