The '''ZUGSEIL Shop''' is a highly versatile, multipurpose shop-like application, which is '''highly configurable''' and comes with '''advanced features'''. Many features aim towards '''preventing cost''' rather than only facilitating the process of procurement. Especially as internal procurement frontend, our shop can provide '''significant cost savings''' compared to a standard shop solution.

Within regular shops searching for products can be very time consuming. Especially in organizations with large number of suppliers or with suppliers with a large number of products, the internal shop can easily inflate over hundreds of thousands or even millions of products. Finding the appropriate products in there is likely to be very inefficient. We have seen customers organizations in a situation where employees refused to order over the internal shop as they said calling the vendor or browsing the vendors shop were faster than using the internal marketplace. To overcome this situation we have created a comprehensive set of tools to save time and reduce wrong decisions. All this finally drives the acceptance of the internal marketplace, finally materializing all the benefits of a digitized sourcing & procurement process chain.


==Extensibility==
'''ZUGSEIL Shop''' comes with extension packages which add sophisticated procurement functionality:


* [[Accelerated Ordering Tools (SHOP-AOT)]] - This extension of the regular shop allows to enforce company regulations for ordering products predefined to certain target audiences within the company. Available products can defined on user level - or be linked to team memberships, group memberships, organizational unit memberships, skills, job profile or rank.
*[[Digital Service Point (SHOP-DSP)]] - This extensions enriches the shop with assistants, which guide and govern the ordering party through the ordering process. The assistant guides the user throught the ordering process, reducing wrong decisions or enforcing rulesets predefined by the organization.
*[[Uniform Shop (SHOP-UFS)]] - This extension enrichtes the shop with physical on-site shopping experience, which has regular point-of-service software aspected, but also includes the ability to manage personal equipment.
*[[ZUGSEIL SHOP Extension - Procurement Support Tools (SHOP-PST)|Procurement Support Tools (SHOP-PST)]] - This extension brings transparency of procurement structures of large organizations to internal users. Find responsible buyers, contracts or suppliers for any kind of product easily and create a Procurement Requisition easily without first having the hassle of finding out the right procurement path or procurement officer.
*[[Dev:Size Recognizer|Digital body measuring]] - acquiring the body measures and detecting the appropriate sizes is an art - and the job of tailor inside a shop. With our digital body measuring we deliver this functionality by a mobile assistant to every user. This feature can save a lot of time as traveling to Point-Of-Services is no longer neccessary for users within the normal size ranges.
These extensions integrate the SHOP functionality with our [[ZUGSEIL Lifecycle Management (LCM)|Lifecycle Management (LCM)]], integrating procurement and asset management into one solution with no interfaces required. Procured assets are bound to the business object they are destined for. Once they arrive and are comissioned, they can be tracked over their entire lifecycle no matter if they change primary user or are re-attached to other common business objects, like staff members, projects, offices, workplaces, ... and many more.
