Thanks to D&B Finance Analytics, Swisslog masters its international project business - both on the supplier and customer side.
"We finally got what we've been talking about for years." For Bruno Zingg, Head of Strategic Purchasing at Swisslog, the introduction of D&B Finance Analytics was a great relief in many respects. The predecessor product e-Portfolio lacked many essential functions. "If someone made a credit report, the others had no access to it," recalls Zingg. D&B Finance Analytics has eliminated these and many other weaknesses. It is web-based and makes it possible to work in a team and share reports and information, according to the preferences of Bruno Zingg.
Inspection of suppliers
Swisslog is the leading provider of automation solutions for hospitals and is also active in logistics automation. Swisslog is therefore active in the area of project business and does not manufacture any series products.
For Bruno Zingg, it is crucial in this context that everything runs smoothly. Because every supplier who does not deliver runs the risk of endangering an entire project. For this reason, Swisslog keeps a close eye on all suppliers and obtains information in D&B Finance Analytics on the financials of these companies.
