As another Safefood 360 user, I always appreciated the Supplier Portal functionality.
Suppliers, however do not necessarily agree.
Excuses I have gotten over the years range from "we don't do portals" to "all the documents are available on our website" and there are some suppliers that do in fact have great document repositories on their websites.
I think the root cause is that all suppliers are not created equal. Generally, mega suppliers have a team of "document request fillers" that often get you what you need. Smaller suppliers, obviously do not, and they can't or will not be able to manage a bunch of disparate portals/email requests.
In the era of supply chain visibility/accountability, getting the documents you require as a manufacturer is a huge problem.
Short answer to the OP. No.

I can have every document that requires a review/update scheduled in Safefood 360, but if the supplier never responds to repeated requests for said document, or the person that was designated as the contact has moved on, you don't get squat.
It's easy to say to a suppler "you don't give me the documents I need" you are no longer a supplier. In the real world though, it's not that easy to replace that material with something else that your customer will also have to approve, or conduct testing to ensure the replacement product works as well as the stuff that they specify.
