Business-to-Business Solutions
Look to NIBCO for technology leadership.
The velocity with which e-business evolves

demands that new products and serv-
ices be continuously developed and
introduced to keep our customers at
the center of our business efforts.
NIBCO provides an entire suite of
business-to-business solutions that is
changing the way we interact with customers.
NIBCOpartner.comsm is an exclusive set of secure web applications that allow quick access to
customer-specific information and online order processing. This self-service approach gives you
24/7 access to your order status putting you in total control of your business.
Real time information includes:

• Online order entry • Current price checks
• Viewable invoices & reports • Order status
• Inventory availability • Online library of price sheets, catalogs & submittals
Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) makes it possible to trade business documents at the speed of
light. This technology cuts the cost of each transaction by eliminating the manual labor and paper-
work involved in traditional order taking. This amounts to cost-savings, increased accuracy and
better use of resources.
With EDI, you can trade:

• Purchase orders • Product activity data
• PO Acknowledgements • Advanced ship notices
• Invoices • Remittance advice
Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI), a sophisticated service for automated inventory management,
reduces your overhead by transferring inventory management, order entry and forecasting to
NIBCO. This is an on-going, interactive partnership with NIBCO.
Through automation, VMI brings results:

• Improves customer service • Cuts transaction costs
• Optimum inventory efficiencies • Peace of mind
• Better forecasting • Relief from day-to-day management
