FirstBank enhances supplier platform, assures uninterrupted banking operations

First Bank of Nigeria Limited said it is transitioning from its current I-Supplier Platform (automated platform that connects the bank to suppliers) to a new cloud-based supplier Platform (worldclass platform for managing the bank’s suppliers).

The bank, in a statement, said the migration would provide additional capabilities and benefits for our vendors.

The transition relates to the bank’s platform with suppliers only, the bank said.

It stressed that does not affect its banking systems, customer transactions or channels as reported by some media platforms.

The supplier platform update is part of FirstBank’s continuous investments in improving operational efficiencies and service experience.
It is scheduled to be effected from Saturday October 26, to November 3, while the new cloud-based Supplier Platform will be live on Monday November 4, 2024.

During this period, suppliers will not be able to use the bank’s supplier platform.

However, rest assured that FirstBank’s supplier platform system will be open thereafter, the statement issued by the Group Head, Marketing and Corporate Communications, Folake Ani-Mumuney, said.
