Still Chasing Vendor Forms on Paper?

If you manage vendor relations in a retail chain, you know the drill—vendors fill paper forms, your team re-types data into systems, and errors or delays creep in. This not only wastes time but risks frustrating valuable supplier relationships.

Fortunately, retail leaders are solving this with AI-powered automation tools like SimplyParse, eliminating manual data entry by instantly extracting vendor details from PDFs, scanned forms, and other documents.

Here’s why going digital matters.

Faster Vendor Onboarding = Faster Business

Digitizing vendor forms cuts onboarding time significantly. Instead of chasing physical paperwork, vendor details like contact info, bank details, and compliance documents are captured and stored digitally in one place. This speeds up onboarding, reduces errors, and ensures no document is lost or misplaced.

The result?

Higher productivity for your team
Faster time-to-market with vendor products
Lower operational costs

But that’s not all.

Build Better Vendor Relationships

Quixy reports that 30% of vendors drop off when onboarding is slow or chaotic. Digitized workflows—like self-service portals and e-signature support—cut onboarding time by up to 80%, turning weeks into days.
This shows vendors you value their time, improving trust and retention. Vendors get a smoother experience, which can boost satisfaction by as much as 40%.

Automate Document Processing, Eliminate Errors

Tools like SimplyParse show how AI-powered data extraction can automate the capture of vendor details from PDFs, scanned forms, and other documents—feeding the data straight into your ERP or vendor management system.
This eliminates bottlenecks, reduces human error to near-zero, and ensures vendors receive faster responses, quicker orders, and on-time payments—strengthening relationships and streamlining operations.
