Based on the experience of several Unilever supplier integration programme (e4US) projects, we at PipeChain have packaged our supply chain collaboration solution in a way that can be quickly deployed. The success of the “e4US package” is a combination of thorough supply chain collaboration knowledge, a tried and tested project process and a set of standard software modules from the PipeChain Software Suite.

PipeChain’s e4US solution is fully scalable – you can start by executing SMI with a limited number of Unilever sites and later increase these or roll out the concept to other customers and/or suppliers – all with the same tool.

PipeChain has adapted this solution to comply with the GUSI UIM (Upstream Integration Model), enabling suppliers of .e.g. packaging or ingredients to the CPG industry, to use a common set of electronic (GS1 XML) messages to automate their collaboration process with a range of different customers. For more info on the GUSI UIM and which major CPG manufacturers and suppliers endorse it, please visit the GUSI website.
