The SPS Network Advantage

Shared infrastructure that connects trading partners and coordinates what happens next.

Why now

Supply chains are changing faster than systems can keep up.

Demand patterns shift unexpectedly. Fulfillment paths multiply. New partners and regions get added continuously. The businesses that thrive aren’t necessarily the biggest. They’re the ones that can coordinate across partners without adding operational drag every time something changes.

Intelligence trapped inside individual systems isn’t enough anymore.
What matters is what is happening between companies. 

A DIFFERENT KIND OF NETWORK

A network is not the same as a connection.

Most supply chain technology connects your system to another system. When you add a partner, you add an integration. When requirements change, someone has to update the rules. Every relationship is managed separately, and complexity grows with every addition.

COMMON CHALLENGES

Most supply chain teams are stuck managing the same coordination problems over and over.

Visibility stops at company boundaries.

Your systems show what’s happening inside your four walls. But orders, shipments, and inventory move across companies. When something goes wrong between partners, finding the answer means chasing emails and logging into portals.

Every partner change creates rework.

A retailer updates their requirements. A supplier changes their process. A new logistics provider comes online. Each change triggers manual updates, testing, and exceptions that pull your team away from higher-value work.

Problems surface too late to prevent them. 

By the time an issue shows up in a report, the damage is done. Chargebacks have been assessed. Shipments have been delayed. Your team spends more time reacting to problems than preventing them.

A network operates differently. Trading partner requirements, compliance rules, and relationship context are managed once, at the network level. When something changes, it updates for everyone affected. When you add a new partner, the groundwork is already done. The network carries the complexity, so your team doesn’t have to. 

SPS COMMERCE NETWORK CAPABILITIES

One network to connect, orchestrate, and optimize how you work with trading partners.

The SPS Commerce network is a shared infrastructure that already understands how supply chain partners operate. You get the reach, intelligence, and coordination that only comes from a network with 300,000+ trading relationships and handles over 750 million transactions per year.

The Network

The secure, scalable foundation that connects the entire ecosystem. Unmatched reach, reliability, and resilience across retailers, suppliers, distributors, and logistics providers.

Embedded Expertise

Supply chain knowledge learned from thousands of customer relationships is built into every connection. The network understands how different partners operate, what information each party needs, and where issues commonly occur.

Expansive Ecosystem

Over 400 system automation partners, and integrations with major ERP, WMS, and TMS environments. Trading partner requirements are already mapped and maintained for the community.

Multi-Solution Portfolio

Start where the pain is, then expand without starting over. Add solutions as needs change without disrupting your operations or your trading relationships.

Agentic Intelligence

With agentic intelligence embedded within the network, work moves without constant hand-holding. The network recognizes patterns, identifies when activity deviates from what’s expected, and takes or recommends action within defined guardrails.
THE SCALE BEHIND THE INTELLIGENCE

The most powerful AI starts with the most powerful network.

Most supply chain AI is trained on models. Ours is trained on what actually happens.

300,000+ trading relationships

means your supply chain network is likely already connected to ours.

750M+ transactions each year

means problems get spotted before they reach your team

33M+ product SKUs

means intelligence at the item level, not just the order level.

50,000+ subscribing customers

means every transaction makes the network smarter for everyone.

400+ system automation partners

means intelligence that works with the systems you already use.
This isn’t theoretical. It’s 25 years of supply chain operations, continuously learning.
