Supplier intergration
SUPPLIER INTEGRATION
Trusted by engineering teams worldwide
At Scandinavian Digital, Supplier Integration is one of our core service pillars, delivered with our platform CONFIG 2 that allows to automate product specifications, streamline supplier collaboration, and eliminate manual bottlenecks. Our method ensures seamless collaboration between manufacturers and suppliers, optimizing digital workflows to enhance efficiency, accuracy, and cost-effectiveness.
What a lack of supplier integration causes
How CONFIG2 platform solves this
Product specification
Time-comsuming product specification processes
Repetitive manual work
Repetitive manual work in supplier sales and quoting
Outdated data
Incorrect or outdated configuration data shared across teams
Engineering bottleneck
Engineering becoming a bottleneck for supplier request
Delays
Delays caused by emails, spreadsheets, and disconnected systems
CONFIG2 connects suppliers directly to your configuration and engineering flow through one shared platform.
By giving suppliers access to correct configuration data, documentation, and specifications, collaboration becomes faster, more consistent, and less dependent on manual communoication.
Project case
Custom-made fans: From 4 hours to under 4 minutes
A customer case from 2025: BarkerBille
Here, you can watch an interview with Flemming Bille, CEO of BarkerBille, and Christian Andersen, CFO and Senior Partner at Scandinavian Digital. They discuss the technology, benefits, and results of this project, which was carried out under the MADE initiative.
A new product configurator made by the Scandinavian Digital team ensures that customers can easily order unique fans directly from BarkerBille’s production. Before, it took 4 hours to prepare an offer – now it takes less than 4 minutes, according to experience from a MADE demonstration project. BarkerBille, a Danish company specialized in the design, manufacture, and supply of high-quality industrial fans expects to implement the product configurator during the first half of 2025 starting the year ahead of competition.
BarkerBille faced an engineering bottleneck that made ordering customized fans directly from production more complex than it needed to be.To overcome this challenge, they participated in a MADE demonstration project, where they were matched with Scandinavian Digital, the right technology partner for the job. As a fellow member of MADE, Scandinavian Digital specializes in digital solutions that eliminate engineering bottlenecks, helping companies like BarkerBille streamline workflows and enhance efficiency. Through this collaboration, BarkerBille was able to optimize its processes and move closer to a more seamless and efficient production setup.
