SEEBURGER: Digitalization in CPG & Retail

Online commerce plays an ever more important role in the consumer packaged goods (CPG) industry. At the heart of this are e-commerce platforms, which ensure fast, transparent and secure data exchange by seamlessly connecting systems, devices and apps in real time via connectors and APIs.

The digital transformation of the supply chains in this fast moving consumer goods (FMCG) industry also enables automation, IIoT device connectivity and data analytics.

Streamlined Distribution Processing: Automation of B2B Communication with SAP S/4HANA

PUMA seasonal sports and lifestyle collections are distributed via wholesalers and international e-commerce platforms that are based on customer-specific catalogues with very different types of data. This data ranges from master data for local offline stores, to multilingual attributes for global online shops, to explicit e-commerce content such as textile and washing specifications according to EU regulations.
In the past, heterogeneous ERP and EDI systems impeded fast and seamless sales processes. Onboarding new customers was slow and painstaking. PUMA’s main challenge was preparing and transmitting catalogue data tailored specifically to each online sales partner and the PUMA field sales team.

E-Commerce in the consumer packaged goods industry

Manufacturers are expanding their retail strategy with online marketplace offerings and using connectors and APIs to integrate with e-commerce platforms.

The SEEBURGER BIS Platform integrates e-commerce systems, such as online stores, CRM systems, payment systems and online marketplaces into a comprehensive digital ecosystem.

Optimize your supply chain

From production to the end consumer, consumer goods cover long distances. Digitalizing your supply chain from end to end increases efficiency and transparency and helps improve your planning.

Real-time data transmission opens up entirely new avenues for differentiated data analysis, automation, production connectivity and IIoT integration. The SEEBURGER BIS Platform integrates all business processes for fast moving consumer goods and the CPG industry—all in one cloud-based platform.

Integrate your online shop with your ERP system

When your online store is seamlessly integrated with your ERP software, your product, customer and transaction information is kept permanently up to date in both systems.

Any changes you make in the backend automatically appear to your customers browsing your online shop. Seamless integration also improves and streamlines procurement, logistics, administration and customer service. If you also integrate a PIM or PDM system, you can automatically enrich master data with design elements such as photos or videos.

Personalize your customers’ shopping experience

For consumer goods companies in particular, digitalization opens up many avenues to offer your customers a highly personalized shopping experience and better customer orientation.

After all, customers now expect individualized discounts and their individual preferences for packaging and delivery options to be automatically registered. This level of personalization is only possible if you have digitalized business processes. The SEEBURGER BIS Platform enables the hyperautomation and digitalization of processes with a rules-based process engine, the ability to manage structured and unstructured data, API integration, information and process management, and the ability to integrate your ERP system.
