DOG(Dealer Order Gateway)Service Achievements and Essence
Ordering platform specializing in bioscience
The B2B ordering platform that we have been operating since 2012 optimizes the distribution of research reagents and equipment, and currently connects over 100 retailers (dealers) and over 50 manufacturers.
Cost reduction through EDI standard format
By using a “standard format” within the service, the proprietary data formats of each dealer and manufacturer can be converted into each other. When adding new business partners, common specifications can be shared, making it possible to expand while keeping development and operational costs down.
File conversion and data integration advantages
Order data, delivery data, product data, etc. are managed centrally and automatically converted into the format required by each system. This allows smooth data exchange even in supply chains involving multiple businesses.
Possibility of expansion to other industries

Advantages of introduction
Lead time reduction and inventory optimization
Automatic linking of order data allows inventory to be grasped and adjusted in real time, reducing the risk of wasted inventory and delivery delays.
Reduce the cost of adding new business partners
Using common specifications allows you to collaborate with new dealers and manufacturers at low cost and in a short time, so you won’t miss out on business opportunities.
Cross-industry scalability
This system, which has already been proven in the bioscience field, can be customized to meet the requirements of other industries, forming a strong foundation for promoting digital transformation.
