- B2B Self-Service Commerce
Let Customers Order on Their Terms — While Your Sales Team Sells Smarter.
Self-service for customers. Strategic focus for sales.
Modern B2B buyers expect the same speed and control they experience in B2C — without sacrificing contract pricing, approval flows, or account relationships.
NGI delivers 24/7 intelligent self-service portals that automate routine transactions and free sales teams to focus on growth — not administration.
Self-service doesn’t replace sales. It makes sales strategic.
Give buyers independence — without losing control.
Let customers order and re-order anytime
Enforce pricing, credit, and approval rules automatically
Reduce sales workload on low- value transactions
Increase repeat and long-tail orders
Improve customer satisfaction without margin erosion
Turn sales teams into advisors, not order clerks
Manual selling breaks when volume and expectations rise
In many B2B organisations:
Every order requires a sales rep
Pricing, discounts, and limits live in Excel or email
Approvals slow down buying cycles
Customers wait — and competitors don’t
Meanwhile, B2B buyers now expect:
- Instant price and availability
- Easy re-ordering
- Transparent delivery timelines
- Digital convenience
The Result of Not Adapting
- High cost per order
- Sales teams buried in operational work
- Frustrated customers
- Missed long-tail and repeat orders
B2B Self-Service is no longer optional.
It's a competitive requirement.

The NGI Approach
Intelligent self-service that balances customer autonomy with business governance
Account-Based Self-Service Portals
Each customer organisation operates within its own digital workspace:
- Multiple users per account
- Role-based permissions
- Budget and approval chains
- Delivery addresses and payment terms
Customers gain autonomy — you retain governance.
Contract Pricing & Credit Control
Customers see only what they are entitled to:
- Contracted price lists
- Tiered discounts
- Credit limits and quotas
- Volume-based incentives
All enforced automatically, in real time.
No exceptions. No manual checks.
Fast Ordering & Re-Ordering
Enable frictionless buying through:
- Quick order by SKU
- CSV / bulk upload
- Favourite lists and templates
- AI-assisted basket completion
Re-orders take minutes — not calls.
Quote-to-Order & RFQ Flows
For complex purchases:
- Customers request quotes digitally
- Sales reviews, approves, or adjusts
- Quotes convert directly into orders
No re-keying.
No lost context.
