Supply Chain Management
Lighter, Stronger, and More Cost-Effective
Risk, uncertainty and disparate processes have put supply chains to the test in recent years, companies must now innovate and adapt in order to overcome these challenges and meet market demand.
Industrial technology enables companies to design, develop, deliver, and support more complex products at a larger scale than ever before. To make this possible, supply chains have become increasingly global and local, requiring an integrated ecosystem which allows all key stakeholders to collaborate easily and efficiently.
This complexity increases the probability of disruption and delays. In addition to this, there is an extensive and expensive collection of processes which require manual tasks and decisions to be made by humans, which drives up costs and increases delays.
However, through efficient supply chain planning and optimization technology, organizations can build agility and resilience to ensure continuity throughout their business, and their wider supply chains.
Modern Planning Solution Requirements
To tackle the complexity of creating a truly integrated supply chain where outsourcing and external collaboration is a necessity, modern planning solutions must:
- Enable model-based virtual twins of the value network that represents metrics, business processes and data
- Provide a control tower view that leverages data science and optimization, creating end-to-end supply chain visibility and control for smarter business decisions
- Enable supply chain planning in a collaborative ecosystem that connects all stakeholders and uses real-world data in real time to facilitate the effective execution of plans
- Leverage world-class technology to benefit from artificial intelligence for automating basic decisions and identifying risk factors
- Infuse more agility and resilience through model-based simulations and what-if scenarios to create truly technically advanced and sustainable supply chains
- Optimize logistics for improved metrics to track and manage customer experiences
- Improve productivity, safety and retention in the workforce while eliminating waste
