Supply Chain Management

Supply Chain Management (SCM) is the entire management of the flow of a 'deliverable' from a primary source, all the way through the business, to the end customer. We were an early market adopter of SCM solutions, providing independent expertise across its complete spectrum, and we are now regarded as a market leader in the field.

Our Supply Chain Event Suite solution provides real-time event information to enhance existing processes. It has been specifically designed with a modular approach, so that our clients can target particular gaps or issues identified in their specific supply chains. This approach brings benefits and ROI much quicker with a low risk. Our SCM solutions show our clients how to achieve the right balance and realise sizeable benefits from the following areas:

• Fulfilling customer orders 'on time' and 'in full'
• Improving quality by minimising production waste and defective deliveries
• Increasing production flexibility by improving responsiveness to unforeseen changes in demand
• Reducing the elapsed time from customer order to customer receipt
• Reducing supply chain related costs
• Minimising inventory and maximising cash efficiency
• Better asset utilisation

Vendor Managed Inventory

Our Supply Chain Event Suite solution includes a Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) capability, which has returned proven benefits and savings in transactional cost reductions and process streamlining.

VMI enables our clients to view, maintain and analyse bulk inventory related data within their supply chain 'in real-time'. Inventory data can be easily and effectively analysed from a corporate level down to specific tanks or silos as and when required. Information collected by the VMI solution can be securely accessed via web-based applications, and is easily integrated into sales order processing systems and ERP applications.
