2. Supply chain management (SCM) is a system for businesses
in the provision of products and packages required by the
end customer in a supply chain. The SCM spans all storage
and movement of raw materials, finished product from first
point of beginning to the end point of consumption and work
in progress inventory.
Supply chain management includes the design, planning and
execution process with the final goal being the creation of the
supply line activities leveraging worldwide delivery and
coordinating supply and demand locally, regionally or
globally.
3. Our supply chain management software allows the user to
manage up and down stream costs of materials used, final
goods, manufactured and goods sold among the appropriate
suppliers, resellers and consumers. The software allows
systematic and coordination of traditional and nontraditional
functions of business and the tactics employed within a
company in the system. This supply chain management
philosophy puts in place methods to improve performance long
term of the different companies involved in the supply chain.
4. The supply chain strategies need an all encompassing
overview of the companies involved in a chain to work
efficiently and create customer satisfaction at the final point
of delivery. The SCM software provides an in depth of cost to
product ration to help eliminate unnecessary costs. This will
allow the user to focus attention on added value strategy for
efficient and equitable distribution to products and materials
in the supply line.
5. In the global supply chain, proper chain management
integrates key business processes all along the supply chain
to create adding value for all involved, customers and
stockholders alike. SCM takes in the planning and
management of all necessary activities included in source
procurement, conversion of customers and logistics
management.
6. SCM software allows the user to establish a supply line and
include all the components, including production material,
suppliers, inventory and the end product all in one place.
Reports can be generated by the day, week, month or year
with an odd on ability that allows reports to be generated
for any time frame or for certain 24 hour periods.
7. Creating a distribution strategy is made easier with the
software ability to define a delivery scheme for suppliers,
facilities for production purposes, distribution warehouses and
centers and eventually, the customers. The success for a
distribution strategy is to coordinate the transportation,
shipping, direct store delivery and include the exact mode of
transportation between the manufacture, customers, point of
sale centers and inventory storage.
The right SCM software allows a cross type functional
approach to manage the raw materials into an organized
internal processing system. This will includes the finished
products and moving all finished products to their destination
and eventually into the hands of the consumer. What this all
means to the user is the reduction of raw goods ownership, the
resources that provides the raw goods and the optimization of
the distribution centers.
