Supply Chain Management


Managing the supply chain is more than placing orders and hoping things arrive on time. Supplier collaboration, system transparency, accurate sales forecasting, real-time inventory information and order tracking, automatic order creation, and managed logistics are core elements of a harmonized, fully integrated supply chain.

Cloud-Based Solution for an Integrated Supply Chain

Challenge: Suppliers are operating with little or no demand forecast information. As a result:

Supplier production is reactive and often requires longer lead-times before delivery. Sometimes they must wait for raw materials to arrive before producing. Delivery dates may be indeterminable, thus risking an out-of-stock situation.

Without a demand forecast, the supplier may be sitting on excess inventory. For them, it may be time to raise the delivery cost to cover unexpected inventory and storage costs.

Solution: With Merge IT’s Cloud-Based Business Solutions and a collaborative relationship with each vendor, the enterprise can avoid late deliveries and high excess inventories. The process begins by linking each element of the supply chain with a dynamic shared forecasting module. With accurate demand data and real-time customer inventory levels, suppliers can anticipate product volumes to:

Improve production scheduling

Fine-tune Purchasing by buying the right quantities without “emergency” shipments

Reduce raw and finished inventory

Established fixed lead-times and timely deliveries

Never allow the enterprise to run out of stock

The benefits to the business are:

Greater focus on marketing and selling and less on trying to keep the “shelves stocked”

Reduced safety stock because of fixed lead-times

Eliminate out-of-stock and the resulting loss of sales

Increased margins, lower product costs and operating expenses, and improved sales

Transparency and shared information through the cloud-based platform are the critical components for each link of the chain to be able to anticipate and perform.
