Welcome to SureFront, retail's unified collaboration management system. Unified collaboration means a shared tool for a shared mission. The better that we can work among our internal teams and external vendor and customer partners, the more likely it is that we all win. Let's start with the product development and sourcing tools. The system allows flexible setup to match your company's team structure. There's one shared project inbox for all team members in the channel. This allows each team member, regardless of their role, to work on the same projects in one easy-to-use workspace. At the project details level, attributes of the item can be changed. This is where team members can contribute the information they're most responsible for. Edits made by team members are logged comprehensively. Workflow tasks and due dates can be assigned to products for planning and delivery. Each product has field-by-field commenting for seamless collaboration. The project level shows where each product is on the workflow of product development. Ready products can be selected and sent as requests for quotes to suppliers. Suppliers receive requests for quotes in a shared quotations inbox. Suppliers only see the specific quotation they're dealing with. Items on the quote have a full item details page shared by the internal and vendor teams. Collaboration tools help align teams and factories quickly. Finalized items can be saved back to the core catalog within SureFront. New updates to items are displayed in the event log tool. Pro forma purchase orders can be created using SureFront's ordering tool. Orders can be easily managed in SureFront's order inbox. Draft orders can be finalized with necessary details and approvals. Orders can be sent out to vendor or factory partners with email notifications. Partners can review and confirm orders or request changes. An overall workflow tab allows comparison of products across suppliers and projects. Products ready to share with other teams can be viewed in the catalog. The catalog acts as a central source of truth for product information. Products can be searched, sorted, and filtered by various attributes. Product details include all necessary information developed by product development teams. Product data in the Core Catalog can be leveraged for various purposes. Buying tools allow for redevelopment, reworkshopping, or reordering products. Product data can be shared with retail or customer partners using the selling tools. The Showcase selling tool allows creation of private showrooms for partners. Partners can preview, favorite, or request more information on items in the showroom. Partners can collaborate with sales teams and place purchase orders in the system. SureFront helps teams go from product development to a best-in-class experience for their partners, vendors, brands, and products.
