Supplier Resources
Sourcing
We use Ariba Sourcing as our preferred method to interact with vendors and receive information, proposals and quotes.
Supplier Onboarding
To work with Smith+Nephew, suppliers must be registered in our systems via Ariba Network. Our supplier onboarding process follows strict industry regulations and compliance requirements.
To be onboarded as a supplier, Smith+Nephew will initiate the request and the supplier will receive an invitation to register/log in to Ariba Network and respond to our onboarding questionnaire. The information received is reviewed by our Compliance, CSR and Finance teams before the account can be created.
