b2b2dot0 SaaS eCommerce Solution Wins Drive Medical Design & Manufacturing Business

b

The founders of b2b2dot0 have been delivering successful b2b projects since they helped create Haht Commerce’s e-commerce solutions in 1998. Collectively the organization has been responsible for more than 50 organizations making the leap to web-based ordering. Consistently b2b e-commerce projects require the collaboration of three key groups of stakeholders: the business users, the SAP experts, and the web technology experts. At b2b2dot0 all three key groups are handled by experienced staff to deliver a successful system, building the right solution and establishing frameworks for communication.
b2b2dot0 found a gap in the market since no one was extending SAP with easy to learn and easy to use e-commerce products. There were two choices: build a custom web site from scratch or heavily customize existing software products. b2b2dot0 has created a better way: a configurable web platform for e-commerce – leveraging best-in-class open-source technology and delivered as Software-as-a-Service. This platform delivers successful projects faster, more affordably, with lower risk. SAP users who believe that customer service matters find that b2b2dot0 gives customers tools to do business effortlessly. b2b20dot0 is a strategic partner completely focused on e-commerce.
Dr. Sam Bayer, Chief Executive Officer and Founder of b2b2dot0 (www.b2b2dot0.com) announced that Drive Medical will be using their eCommerce solution to develop its new corporate website, which will be linked to Drive Medical’s existing SAP operating platform. Drive’s new website will provide state of the art features, and will enable customers to order directly through the site. Drive Medical is one of the leading manufacturers and distributors of durable medical products in the United States, Europe, Canada, Mexico, South America and Latin America.
Bayer said, “We’re excited to be working with Drive Medical. In 2007, Drive Medical partnered with SAP, the largest provider of business software in the world, to license SAP’s All-In-One Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software, which includes a fully-integrated warehouse management system, automated supply chain management function, and state of the art customer relationship management (CRM) system. We are delighted to be a major part of Drive’s business strategy by extending our eCommerce Solution to Drive’s new web site and their customers”.
Charles Chiodo, Drive Medical’s CIO, noted that, “We evaluated many solutions and b2b2dot0’s Software as a Service (SaaS) model demonstrated real time integration with our existing SAP system. We have made significant investment in technology to improve our supply chain from design and manufacturing through distribution. b2b2dot0’s solution will allow us to extend this automation and its benefits directly to our customers.“
Bayer also noted that, “Our Software as a Service model enables Drive Medical to redeploy their technical and financial resources to more productive uses, While our core competency remains our ability to build SAP integrated B2B eCommerce websites, we’re happy to help our clients in any way we can to help them leverage the web to their competitive advantage.”
