Work quickly with vendors and suppliers

Stay flexible and capitalize on new opportunities by working securely with partners in a Slack channel

Stay in sync with operations partners

Managing supply chains and logistics requires skilled coordination. By sharing a channel with your partners, you can work closely to run day-to-day operations, relay important updates, and handle the unexpected.

Operations and logistics teams use Slack Connect to: 

  • Share real-time updates with partners about key changes to your supply chain
  • Triage issues quickly by looping in the right people from both sides
  • React and adapt to changing environments to meet customer demand
  • 40%

    Decreased time to resolve issues

  • 2x

    Decreased turnaround time for responses from partners

A channel that’s shared with a partner looks and feels like a channel you use with your internal team. People from up to 20 different companies can join, so everyone can stay aligned and drive results in one shared space.

Our restaurant partners and our shared service providers can all be in the same Slack channel. Then if there’s an incident, we can immediately communicate with them as if they were physically in the same office as us.

Thousands of companies already use Slack Connect to work better together

3. Wait for your partner to accept

Pour yourself a cup of tea. Once your partner clicks the link, they’ll be taken back to Slack, where they can accept the invite and set up the channel on their end.
