Werner Business Challenges
The Solution
Xngage leveraged the EpiServer B2B (now Optimizely B2B) ecommerce platform to improve the Werner Electric Supply user experience. Utilizing out-of-the-box functionality for search, ERP integration, contracts, pricing, and ordering, they were able to develop quick-order (and reorder) capabilities and make the website a valuable tool for external AND internal users.
Linking their commerce site to a Product Information Management (PIM) System allowed for better merchandising and cross-sell opportunities. This was key as they also wanted to create a personalized user experience based on buying patterns.
Finally, the new site allowed for real-time inventory management by warehouse to enable faster local pick-up times for customers. And with punchout integration, or online store within a customer’s e-procurement system, customers could have a more self-service, turnkey purchasing experience.
The Results
The key to the website design - eliminating friction from the buying experience - taught leaders the importance of a timely and thorough digital transformation. With an increase in adoption, orders, and sales, they are continuing to refine their digital experiences to further lead well into the future.
