What is supplier information management?
Supplier information management, or SIM, is a system that enables businesses to efficiently retrieve, organize, and manage supplier information, maximize supplier engagement, and improve data quality across a global supplier base.
SIM works by creating a standardized supplier relationship process and a central view of all supplier information. It also provides a single source of accurate real time data, allowing a business to improve supplier compliance, performance, and benchmarking. SIM helps to improve the collaboration of different departments and minimizes the risk of working with any non-approved suppliers.
When implemented effectively, SIM software is a hyper-efficient process capturing comprehensive information and making it easily accessible by different stakeholders and decision makers throughout the business.
Benefits of SIM software
![]()
Maximize supplier data
Because supplier information is collected and put in one place, a supplier information management solution allows for a rich supplier data set including every piece of information necessary, such as risk metrics, capabilities, and accreditations.

Automatic supply chain compliance
SIM can employ automated alerts to ensure suppliers keep key metrics and documents up to date, as well as prompting for any new certifications as their current ones near their expiry date. It can also put any non-compliant vendors on hold until any problems are resolved.
![]()
Single data source
Instead of having multiple departments with different data, a supplier information management system provides a master data set that can feed into any other systems automatically. This means you don’t have the same information stored twice and keeps the data in sync across all business systems. It also reduces the risk of manual error in these circumstances.
![]()
Cost-cutting
SIM empowers suppliers to provide any information that the business needs, typically via self-service online portals. These portals can allow businesses to securely capture the core account information and adds to that data to create a detailed picture of supplier capabilities. This is all done automatically, therefore requiring less manual work from different departments.
