Your live suppliers can showcase their company on their Company Profile page, invite their teams (for free), collaborate with you on the Opportunities you've invited them to and access relevant Project information.
Your Suppliers can access:
- The homepage: Including the 'About us' section populated by your organisation and the Latest updates sent to the supplier ecosystem.
Their Company Profile: A reduced version of the profile you see, to enable them to update their logo, ESG IMPACT data, promote products/services and respond to Compliance requests. A supplier can only ever see their own Company Profile.
Opportunities they have been invited to: Their status, updates posted to all suppliers and Opportunity messages.
Projects: Any imported Projects where they form the supplier team. Suppliers cannot create their own Projects. They can only see information and data that is relevant to them and their contract with you.
Account: Enabling suppliers to invite colleagues to join IAND (for free).

Company Profile
Suppliers can only access their own Company Profile page, where they can update their profile, respond to compliance requests and showcase their experience and capabilities.
The main difference from the client experience is that suppliers do not have access to the Projects module, where clients can see all Projects and spend against that supplier.
