Overview
CombineNet is the advanced sourcing technology company. The company’s optimization-driven
solutions deliver the absolute best total cost of goods and services based on the
buying organization's unique business needs. Easy to use advanced sourcing solutions significantly increase the speed
and efficiency of the sourcing cycle for a wide variety of spend categories unaddressed
by standard e-sourcing technologies.
CombineNet was founded in 2000 to provide a unique and proprietary optimization
technology to businesses seeking advanced decision making capabilities. Early successes
with clients such as Procter & Gamble and Bayer led to CombineNet’s introduction
of the concept of Expressive Commerce™, an innovative, technology-enabled sourcing
practice which combines the best of traditional buyer-seller negotiation with an
advanced online capability to collect and analyze expressive supplier proposals.
Via Expressive Commerce, buyers and suppliers are collaborating within a richer,
more expressive marketplace for communicating demand and supply options for mutual
gain, driving new cost reductions and supply chain efficiencies.
After years of designing, creating and managing the most complex strategic sourcing
events for some of the world’s largest companies, CombineNet now delivers powerful
and flexible sourcing solutions that allow buyers to leverage the power of its
Advanced Sourcing Application Platform for a broader impact on their organizations’
strategic sourcing.
CombineNet's advanced sourcing solutions have widespread application for any strategic
spend category. With established offices in North America and Europe, the company
has extensive global expertise in the sourcing of direct and indirect materials,
transportation and services for CPG, manufacturing and retail companies, government
agencies, and healthcare providers. Sixteen of the Fortune 100 and more than 60
of the Fortune 1000 use CombineNet for their most advanced strategic sourcing activities.
