SUPPLIER ONBOARDING
Find Success as an IPG Supplier
Registering as a Supplier
IPG’s supplier management program requires non-media suppliers to register via the SAP Ariba Network. The SAP Ariba Network offers increased information security and efficiency in the supplier onboarding process by allowing suppliers to self-register and directly maintain their data whether a supplier is a new partner or an existing partner that needs to update their supplier information. The below instructions are only applicable to suppliers supporting IPG’s agencies in regions where IPG has deployed the SAP Ariba Network. Please consult with your engaging agency for instructions.

What To Expect
Vendors working with agencies who have implemented the SAP Ariba Network should expect to receive a system-generated email invitation to begin the registration process with IPG via the SAP Ariba Network. This email will include the following attributes:

Subject: Invitation: Register to become a supplier with [followed by specific IPG agency name, etc.]
A daily automated reminder email is sent after this initial invitation to register. If you are not able to locate this email, please check your spam or other email folders, or contact your local IT support desk to adjust your email settings for restricted domains. Suppliers will have 9 business days to complete the form after the initial invitation is received.
If you have previously done business with the Interpublic Group of Companies or its subsidiaries, you should have received an email prior to the invitation with instructions for validating and updating the information we currently have on file.
In preparation for receiving an invitation, please collect the following documents:
