Volkswagen built its own B2B network called VWGroupSupply.com instead of joining the large automotive industry consortium Covisint. VWGroupSupply.com handles over 90% of Volkswagen Group's global purchasing of automotive and parts components. It offers over 30 online applications to over 35,000 registered suppliers with over 110,000 users. Key applications include an electronic capacity management tool that allows Volkswagen and suppliers to track production plans and material requirements in real-time. This private industrial network model aims to better coordinate trans-organizational supply chain processes compared to a net marketplace.
