Supplier & Customer Management

Your entire network. Verified & Connected.

Onboard, verify and manage every supplier and customer with structured digital workflows. Smart contracts, digital signing, credential management and audit trails, built in. The same verified records feed sourcing, sustainability and risk decisions elsewhere on the platform - so a supplier is checked once, not once per team that needs to trust it.

Supplier & Customer Management

What's included

Every feature below runs on the same SYNE One data layer - shared with every other module on the platform.

Structured Onboarding Workflows

Guided, configurable onboarding with document checklists, KYC/KYB verification, credit checks, sustainability questionnaires and multi-step approval - fully digital and fully auditable.

Smart Contracts & Digital Signing

Draft, negotiate and execute binding contracts with eSign. Smart contract logic automates payment releases, renewal reminders, compliance checks and SLA enforcement when conditions are met.

Product & Price Catalogue

Maintain digital catalogues per supplier - products, services, agreed pricing, MOQs, lead times, delivery terms and sustainability certifications, all linked to each SKU and accessible at procurement time.

Credential & Certification Management

Centralised document vault for ISO certificates, audits, insurance documents and ESG disclosures. Automatic expiry alerts ensure compliance credentials are always current.

Relationship & Transaction History

A complete timeline of every interaction - orders, payments, disputes, contracts, communications - searchable and exportable. Full context for every supplier conversation.

Supplier Scorecards & KPIs

Automated supplier scorecards across delivery performance, quality, payment compliance, sustainability and responsiveness - with trend analysis and benchmarking against category averages.

Smart contracts

Contracts that execute themselves.

SYNE One's smart contract engine links legal agreements directly to your procurement and payment workflows - when a condition is met, the contract acts automatically.

Template Library + Custom Drafting

50+ pre-built contract templates (MSA, NDA, SLA, supply agreement) or build from scratch with a clause library and version control.

Multi-Party eSign With Audit Trail

Legally binding electronic signatures across all jurisdictions - with a complete audit trail of every view, comment and signing event.

Trigger-Based Automation

Auto-trigger payments, renewals, performance reviews and escalations when contract milestones are reached - no manual follow-up needed.

Built for every role

What Supplier & Customer Management changes, seat by seat.

The same module reads differently depending on who's using it - standard, role-based access covers each of these out of the box, and your business can create any custom role on top.

Procurement Lead

One verified view of every supplier's compliance status, contracts and performance history.

Sales & Account Management

Customer onboarding and contract management in the same system used for financial reporting.

Compliance Officer

Automatic expiry alerts on certificates, insurance and ESG disclosures - nothing lapses unnoticed.

Legal Team

Every contract digitally signed and version-controlled, with a clear audit trail of every amendment.

Onboarding Specialist

Access scoped to running onboarding checklists and KYB verification - without visibility into unrelated contract terms.

Read-Only Reviewer

Full visibility into supplier and customer records for audit or oversight purposes, with no ability to edit or approve.

Connected to the rest of the platform

Supplier & Customer Management doesn't work in isolation.

Data entered here is read directly by the rest of SYNE - many-to-many, not a chain - no export, no re-entry, no separate reconciliation.

F&
Finance & Accounting

Supplier and customer records are the same ones used for invoicing and payment - no separate CRM export.

PR
Procurement & RFx

Verified suppliers can be brought straight into an RFx event - no re-vetting a supplier already on file.

ST
SYNE Trust

Verified supplier identity and provenance data feeds directly into multi-tier traceability records.

SC
SYNE Climate Risk Management

Supplier records underwrite the supply-chain risk category in the flagship risk register.

EE
Emissions & ESG

Supplier-level emissions and certification data feeds Scope 3 calculations without a separate data request.

MP
Marketplace

A verified supplier record here is the same profile visible to other buyers on the Marketplace.

In practice

A retailer managing 400+ apparel suppliers across three continents

The challenge

Supplier onboarding took an average of three weeks, with compliance documents tracked in shared spreadsheets that were rarely current.

Onboarding time dropped to under a week, with automatic alerts now catching expiring certifications before they lapse. Verified identity and provenance data from the same onboarding record now feeds SYNE Trust's cradle-to-grave traceability, Enterprise Sustainability's Scope 3 reporting, and SYNE Climate Risk Management's supply-chain risk score - so the same verification effort answers a traceability question, an emissions question and a risk question at once, not three separate data requests to the supplier.

Legal, compliance & regulatory

Built with the compliance requirements in mind, not added afterwards.

KYC/KYB verification aligned to anti-money-laundering requirements Digital contract execution recognised under major e-signature regulations Document retention for supplier certifications, audits and insurance records Data privacy safeguards for personal data held on customer and supplier contacts
Need legal review on a supplier contract, or an independent read on regulatory exposure? Professionals & Advisors can connect you with lawyers and compliance specialists inside the same platform - and the same supplier data underwrites Market Intelligence's supplier risk benchmarks and Procurement & RFx's smart-contract execution.
What this means for your customers

The benefit doesn't stop at your business.

A verified, well-managed supplier base means fewer disruptions reaching the end customer - consistent quality and delivery, backed by a relationship that's actually being monitored, not assumed.
