Entegris is Transitioning to the Ariba Network
Why are we making this change to Ariba?
Thank you for your years of commitment in supporting us. We are embarking on a new journey with Ariba to improve the way we interact with our suppliers. We would like to share a bit more about what we’ve been doing as an organization, where we are going, and why our partnership with you is so important. We are in the midst of the 4th industrial revolution. This is evident with the advances you see from leveraging the previously far –reaching concepts such as AI and the Internet of Things otherwise simply known as “IOT”. As we increasingly use advanced technologies like home connectivity devices, such a Nest thermostat, to autonomous vehicles there is greater need to have higher performance chips. That performance level requires purer materials which is where Entegris steps in. The demand for our offerings and expertise has driven consistent year over year growth for the past six years. And we are on the path to continue this trajectory. In order for us to be able to scale with this pace of growth we needed to enhance and automate our transaction process. This helps to accomplish a couple of things. It allows us to more quickly and accurately transact with our suppliers. It also reduces the amount of time we spend touching transaction detail and increasing the amount of time we can spend reviewing more strategic approaches to our partnership, to create mutually beneficial results for both Entegris and our suppliers.
So, what is changing? Ariba will be used for all Indirect expenditures. That means that Entegris users will log into Ariba when they need to make a purchase which will eventually flow through to you, our supplier. If you have the capability to set up a catalog, it will be promoted and visible to all Entegris users, driving even more volume to you. If you have an existing Ariba Network (AN) account, you will receive your Purchase Orders (PO) through your Ariba Network account. If you do not have an AN account, you will receive our PO through email or the current process.
Changes to expect starting March 22, 2020 are:
- Our PO prefix number will change from 4500xxxxx to 4000xxxxx.
- Non-Ariba Network suppliers will now receive our POs via Ariba's standard email address: ordersender-prod@ansmtp.ariba.com. Do allow this email address into your inbox.
- Ariba Network suppliers should expect to receive Entegris PO via Ariba Network.
