Build the supplier network behind your network.
Jack Foundry works for businesses that need to source and manage suppliers across many locations, whether everything is handled centrally by head office or individual groups manage their own locations.
Two ways to run it.
HQ
One central team manages supplier sourcing for every location.
Head office adds the locations, runs Ask Jack, shortlists and confirms suppliers, then sends Supplier Packs or shares the information with the teams that need it. Individual locations do not need their own Jack Foundry account.
- Unlimited locations
- One central team
- Central supplier register
- Business Sets
- Saved searches
- Coverage
- Supplier Packs
- No login needed for each location
Network
Give independent groups or operators their own access.
Head office retains visibility across the network while franchisees, dealer groups or independent operators can manage their own locations, suppliers and private notes.
- Multiple groups and operators
- Individual logins
- Delegated location management
- Supplier sharing
- Private group notes
- Invitations
- Network-wide visibility
How the Network model works
Head office sets up the network and connects the groups that operate within it. Each group manages its own locations, while head office keeps visibility across the wider network.
National Dealer Network
East Coast Dealer Group
Brisbane
Toowoomba
Regional Dealer Group
Newcastle
Tamworth
Example only. Names shown are illustrative.
- Network-wide visibility
- See participating groups, locations and confirmed suppliers across the network without taking away local control.
- Let each group manage its own locations
- Dealer groups, franchisees or independent operators can manage their own locations, supplier lists and team access without seeing another group's private information.
- Each location stays with the group that runs it
- Locations remain attached to their operating group, even when head office can search, source or share suppliers across the wider network.
- Share the supplier, not your private notes
- When a supplier is shared, the receiving group gets the business details and relevant public evidence. Private notes, outcomes and internal decisions stay with the team that created them.
- Saved groups of locations
- Run one search across many locations at once.
- Saved searches
- Keep the searches that repeat across the network.
- Coverage
- See where supplier support exists across the network, and where it does not.
- Supplier packs
- A printable supplier pack for the people doing the work.
Don't need individual logins?
Use HQ instead. One central team can manage supplier sourcing across every location without asking each store, dealership, site or franchisee to join Jack Foundry.
