Full-Service Solution Enables Manufacturers to Modernize and Optimize Procurement and Supply Chain Processes

MINNEAPOLIS, May 01, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SPS Commerce, Inc. (NASDAQ: SPSC), a leader in retail supply chain cloud services, today announced Manufacturing Supply Chain Performance Suite, a Full-service EDI offering designed to help companies who manufacture products modernize and optimize their procurement and supply chain processes. Based on years of experience supporting these organizations, SPS developed this comprehensive solution to help brands, co-manufacturers, and co-packers achieve a better performing supply chain. With Manufacturing Supply Chain Performance Suite, customers can streamline their operations, reduce disruptions, and more efficiently produce and sell goods, allowing them to focus on quality, innovation and growth.

In today’s global manufacturing environment, production depends on the seamless coordination of raw materials and components sourced from suppliers around the world. As supply chains become more complex and interconnected, manufacturers, brands who manufacture products, co-manufacturers and co-packers face mounting pressure to minimize production line delays, maintain data accuracy, and stay agile in the face of disruptions like shifting tariffs, supplier changes, and transportation bottlenecks. Yet many manufacturers still manage procurement and communication through disconnected, manual processes that create inefficiencies, delays, and limited visibility into supplier performance and shipment status.

Manufacturing Supply Chain Performance Suite from SPS Commerce solves these challenges by digitizing and standardizing how manufacturers collaborate with their suppliers. Customers receive full-service support and enjoy the unique benefit of the people, process and technology that has become synonymous with SPS Commerce. The comprehensive solution meets customers where they are at on their journey including:

Evaluation of the current state of their supply chain, resulting in a change management program recommendation for both internal teams and external supplier partners. Supplier engagement tailored to their individual business needs whether they already have an EDI solution or need a new one. Ongoing guidance to ensure internal teams and external partners are continuing to adopt the changes. The ability to monitor and measure the business performance of the entire supply chain, and each individual supplier, to track performance against the baseline and drive continuous improvement.

Benefits of the solution include:

Process automation that reduces errors and speeds up daily operations, freeing up valuable time to focus on more strategic tasks. Real-time data exchange, providing manufacturers with the visibility and accuracy needed to proactively manage production and avoid costly delays. Simplified and streamlined supply chain collaboration that helps manufacturers stay on schedule, reducing risk and enabling efficient growth in an increasingly dynamic and distributed market.
