Customized Internet Procurement
Software House Order Entry System on the Web, or WebSHOES, is our flagship electronic
commerce system. Our object-oriented design and robust relational database make the
programs that implement WebSHOES extremely flexible. The current generation of our website
was built to adapt to each individual customer's needs; SHI offers three levels of
customization to provide the best fit for your company's requirements. We remain dedicated
to giving you a platform that works the way you do, with customization across the system
to meet your unique needs.
SHI.COM
The SHI web sites are designed to provide the customer with the information
necessary to manage IT procurement needs quickly, easily, and effectively. SHI customers
can choose from a pallet of features to build an optimum feature set for procurement via
our website. Our sales executives have direct access for immediate implementation of any
of these features, resulting in quick adaptation to each customer's best e-purchasing
environment. From access to product information and online ordering, to order status
and reporting, we provide a customized, integrated platform to help you manage your
hardware and software procurement.
Your Homepage at SHI
A custom homepage is another level of site adaptation that we offer to our
customers. A custom homepage includes the same level of feature customization
described above, as well as a tailored interface. Organizations with a custom
homepage from our main site are provided with their own "welcome" page which may
contain links to information that is unique to their own requirements. For example,
one SHI customer's homepage contains a link to a list of "Approved Products",
followed by a listing of internal IT Purchasing professionals who may grant technical
approval for products not on the pre-approved list. Other custom homepages include
licensing program contract information and product listings. Your SHI sales executive can
work with you to create a custom welcome page/user interface. Click on Your Home at
SHI for an example. Unless you are already logged-on, you will be prompted to enter a user
name and password. If you are not currently set up for SHI e-commerce, please log on
as "webguest", password, "guest".
Private-label Websites
Customers with a great deal of users can take advantage of an additional customization
offering. SHI can create private-label websites that are fully customized to your
organization's business to business requirements. A private-label site contains
choice information from SHI's main site as well as customer specific information, all
arranged to your specifications. Most often SHI can accommodate your needs with a
custom homepage, however this option is available if the custom homepage does not
sufficiently fit your requirements. One of SHI's major multi-national accounts
relies on this option as the ideal solution to their purchasing needs. An end-user
at this enterprise simply fills out a form on their intranet and a request to create an
account is sent to SHI's server automatically. Currently this organization has
25,000 users accessing the private label site to conduct business with SHI.
