TYS Connect Start Guide

You’ve been invited to join Trust Your Supplier (TYS) because your customer has chosen the platform to improve how they manage supplier relationships and collaboration. While their specific goals may vary, common reasons include:

• Strengthening third-party risk management to ensure a resilient supply chain.
• Enhancing compliance with global regulations and advancing sustainability goals through more transparent partnerships.
• Streamlining the onboarding process, empowering you to manage your profile, including contact details, bank accounts, and required questionnaires.
• Building trust and collaboration by aligning supplier relationships with their digital and supplier responsibility strategies.

It’s important to your customer that you also benefit from the system. With TYS, you can:

• Recognize revenue faster by reducing the time to your first transaction.
• Eliminate redundant work by entering your information once and sharing it with all customers on the network.
• Expand your business opportunities by being discoverable to other organizations looking for trusted partners.

This process ensures a seamless handoff and helps your customer connect with the right person for efficient onboarding.

We understand that terms and conditions can sometimes raise questions. If you have specific questions about the TYS terms, our support team is here to help at [email protected]. For customer-specific terms, reach out directly to your customer for clarification or additional context.

The United Nations Standard Products and Services Code (UNSPSC) is an open, global, multi-sector standard for efficiently and accurately classifying products and services.

You can easily add and maintain your codes using the TYS platform’s simple segment/family/class/commodity search feature. If you need additional guidance, the UNSPSC online list is a helpful resource to explore the full list of codes and understand how they work.

Selecting the appropriate codes ensures your profile accurately reflects your offerings and increases visibility to customers searching for your products or services.

Sharing management details is essential for customer screenings, including sanctions checks and other regulatory requirements. This information helps your customers verify your leadership team, streamlining the qualification process and reducing onboarding delays.

What if I don’t know their birth year? Providing the birth year is optional. If you don’t have this information, you can still complete the profile without it.

What if we don’t have those titles? If your company doesn’t have an official CEO, CFO, or Head of Sales, assign the most appropriate person to each role. For smaller businesses, one individual may fulfill multiple roles, and that’s perfectly acceptable—they can be listed for any or all required positions.

Note: Only the customers you choose to share your profile with on Trust Your Supplier will have access to these details, ensuring your information remains secure and visible only to relevant parties.

This flexibility ensures your profile meets customer requirements while reflecting the unique structure of your organization.
