How it helps buyers How it works Why Supply Chain Financing

Supply Chain Financing - Supply Chain Financing Process Flowchart.

IBM Global Financing has partnered with PrimeRevenue to provide Supply Chain Financing, a combination of technology solutions and services that links buyers, their suppliers and financing providers. Supply Chain Financing optimizes the visibility, financing cost control, availability and delivery of cash triggered by several supply-chain events.

This graphic shows the Supply Chain Financing (SCF) platform and how it delivers a closed-loop solution that maximizes value delivery for both buyers and suppliers:

Supply Chain Financing Process Flowchart.

At its core, the Supply Chain Financing offering is simple. The buying organization provides a file extract from its accounts payable (AP) system containing information about approved supplier invoices, such as payment date and payment amount. This information is uploaded to the PrimeRevenue Supply Chain Financing platform and displayed online to the supplier.

After the information is uploaded, the supplier views the receivables scheduled for future payment and the amount due for each payment. Through the PrimeRevenue Supply Chain Financing platform, suppliers have the option to trade up to 100 percent of the value of their receivables for early cash at any time before the promised payment disbursement (or maturity) date, with a discount subtracted.

The financing cost for this early payment is calculated on a daily basis by the PrimeRevenue Supply Chain Financing Platform and is visible to the supplier at any point before maturity. Because the financing rate is based largely on the buyer's credit rating, it is often highly favorable for the supplier.
