The Co-operative Group is implementing Axway's B2B solutions for process automation and collaboration.

The company will also incorporate Axway's business activity monitoring (BAM) solution to its infrastructure for added visibility into business processes and the supply chain. The platform will automate critical business processes and documents, including orders, advanced shipping notices, dispatch notes and invoices, leading to a more efficient integration between the convenience retailer's back office systems and its suppliers. The first phase of the project, which manages store provision and replenishment, has been implemented.

"Axway's solutions will support the Co-operative in its ongoing commitment to controlled growth by reducing costs, enhancing relationships with suppliers and enabling us to be even more demand driven," says the Co-operative Group's Mark Hale, director of Food Retail Information Services.

The aim of the project is to provide the Co-operative with an automated straight-through processing (STP) platform, cutting out manual involvement with process transactions. The solutions also provide proactive monitoring and exception management in the supply chain process, giving the retailer visibility and control.
