No other supplier can match SHI’s ability to customize and integrate our tools with your strategic platforms of procurement, asset management and payment solutions so that they match the way you want to do business.

E-Commerce Platforms When it comes to supporting an IT environment, one size DOES NOT fit all. That’s why we offer our customers a choice of two e-commerce platforms – SHI.com and the SHI Procurement System (SHIPS).

SHI.com combines the easy use of a consumer-oriented website with the power and security of a leading B2B platform.

SHIPS also gives you the ability to define the content and the terminology that appears on the page so that it aligns with the way you choose to work.

Advanced Integration with your SystemsSHI understands that in today’s world, you need your systems to work together. SHI’s tools have been designed from the ground-up to integrate with your other strategic platforms, such as procurement systems, asset management solutions and helpdesk ticketing systems.

We support a variety of tools and technologies for integrating our systems with yours, including cXML, OCI, Rosetta Net and EDI. We’ve used these to provide integrations with leading e-procurement platforms, such as Ariba, Oracle, SAP and PeopleSoft, either connecting directly with our customers or working through supplier networks or marketplaces such as the Ariba Supplier Network, Oracle Exchange, Pantellos or SciQuest.
