Solvay Chemicals e-Business Policy

Nearly 10 years after the internet hype, e-channels are today well integrated into the multi channel offering of Solvay Chemicals International.

Today our e-service offerings are adapted for different business processes, whether on order-to-cash or on VMI/VMOI, and that for different partners, customer or logistics service providers in various market segments :

a)   System to System integrations with our partners, preferably through Elemica, THE Chemicals Industry global B2B-Hub (www.elemica.com).

b)   Solvay4me as Extranet for deep and individual information exchange with customers as well as Logistics service providers, offering multiple services over the complete order-to-cash cycle, as
- ordering and order tracking
- statistics and document management

c)   Electronic Billing Services, in full compliance with the European Directive 2001/115/EC as well as the main national laws having transposed that directive,
- either as pdf-format in an e-mail attached with advanced electronic signature
- or in xml-format again attached with advanced electronic signature for System-to-System-Integration.
The Solvay e-billing solution is today validated in more than 15 European countries and offers a considerable value for our partners.

d)   Development of further new Business models using the Internet as driver for new business opportunities. Recent example is the go-live of the new direct sales channel Esolion (www.esolion.com) which serves specific customer segments under well defined rules and attractive pricing.

As e-business is today part of the Multi-Channel-Management of Solvay Chemicals International, we are proud to count worldwide amongst the Chemical Industry Leaders in this field.
