In November 2023, we provided suppliers with a simplified and improved profile on SAP Business Network. Now, they can manage and optimize a single all-encompassing Company Profile where they can show off their brand and what makes them stand out to both current and prospective buyers.



Getting the Most from Your Supplier Profile 

There are several ways you as a supplier can take advantage of the features of your profile to get the most from your SAP Business Network experience. 

Sustainability Ratings 

Showcase your company’s commitment to sustainable operations by directly uploading your supplier sustainability rating from EcoVadis, which can be purchased in the SAP Store, to your Company Profile. 

With this verified rating from SAP’s trusted partner, EcoVadis, suppliers can build trust with both current and prospective buyers and generate more leads as buyers search directly for suppliers with a rating uploaded to their profile via the Trading Partner Portal. 

Suppliers also have the option to enter self-reported sustainability ratings from additional providers such as Dun & Bradstreet and Integrity Next. 

For more information on profile sustainability ratings, available today, check out this blog. 

Certifications 

As a supplier, you will be able to showcase the aspects of your company that differentiate you from your competitors with certifications that you can share on your profile. This provides a quick way for buyers to identify suppliers with certain criteria they may be looking for in a trading partner, and for suppliers to demonstrate their corporate social responsibility (CSR). Get these added to your profile by uploading the associated documentation which will be attached to your profile and viewable by buyers. 



Assessments 

Easily share information on your supplier business’ human rights practices using your profile. Complete our standardized assessment, created using industry standards, once, and share it as many times as you like with any buyer on SAP Business Network. Get discovered by more buyers and simplify your onboarding process by completing this assessment and automatically uploading it to your Company Profile. Buyers can easily find the information they need from your profile, and you can reduce the amount of redundant communication required.

Business Network Badges 

Endorse your status as a supplier on SAP Business Network to gain attention in the market and generate leads for your business. Upload your personalized Business Network badge to your company’s website and email signatures. These “Connect with us on SAP Business Network” badge link directly to your Company Profile on the network where potential customers can learn more about your company and connect with you.
