Supply Chain Planning 

In order to sustain supply and demand factors throughout the extended supply chain, it is important to have a plan that, within seconds, considers the cause and effect relationships between data points. Organizations can reduce inventories by optimizing all supply chain activities while increasing responsiveness by implementing shorter planning cycles. The supply chain model incorporates manufacturing and assembly locations, suppliers, and transportation to deliver an optimized plan all while reducing lead time. It also includes “what-if” functionality and incremental changes into the plan to make it successful.

• Reduce excess inventory, overtime, and open work orders
• Shorten lead times
• Gain new visibility into production capacity and material usage
