How to Join the Supplier Showcase

Penn's electronic purchasing system is an effective marketing platform for Penn Marketplace participating suppliers and manufacturers to promote their products and services across campus. In a large decentralized purchasing environment such as Penn, enabling our faculty and staff to quickly and easily access supplier product and promotion related information is a critical success factor for suppliers and significantly enhances the potential for new business development. The ability to utilize Penn's electronic purchasing system as an internal web-based marketing tool is a competitive advantage for suppliers and manufacturers participating in the Penn Marketplace.

In response to suppliers and manufacturers that have committed their support of Penn by participating in the Penn Marketplace, Purchasing Services is pleased to offer an opportunity to participate in an internal marketing initiative to promote corporate news, new products, and Penn specific promotions to faculty and staff. This web-based marketing tool, the Supplier Showcase, enables participating suppliers and manufacturers to showcase their corporate news, products and services, and Penn specific promotions to all BEN Buys purchasing system users as well as faculty and staff who have a need for your products and services.

The Supplier Showcase, just one click away from the BEN Buys Requisition Homepage and Purchasing Services website, is a significant competitive advantage for those suppliers and manufacturers that choose to participate in this innovative marketing initiative. Visitors to each supplier site are tracked and are available to each supplier to help ensure the effectiveness of each supplier's internal marketing initiatives.

Suppliers and manufacturers interested in participating in the Supplier Showcase are to contact Vira Homick in Purchasing Services.
