ONE High Tech: Real-time demand and supply management for high tech and industrial networks

 

No supply chains are as complex, mature, and yet still challenged as high tech and many general industrial supply chains. Outsourcing initiatives have created an environment where multiple enterprises must participate in the simplest of transactions – fulfilling roles for design, manufacture, and distribution.

Things are further complicated by fast-moving products, short product lifecycles, high demand and supply variability, and globally distributed operations. Many companies have installed formal collaboration processes. Now they need to go further: — end-to-end visibility tied directly to order execution and multi-echelon, multi-enterprise process management.

One Network provides this next generation solution, built from the ground up to deal with these unique issues. All supply partners share common infrastructure, information and business processes in a flexible, on-demand model. It allows you to replace your “push” supply chain with a nimble, demand-driven network– one process at a time.

The ONE High Tech network offers:

  • A multi-enterprise business process network that enables continuous incremental planning, tied directly to execution and transaction management.
  • Transaction management and visibility for inventory, orders, shipments andmovements.You can even view and track individual items and transactional lead times.
  • Near-term forecast management. See and react to near-term changes with incremental re-planning that automatically respects constraints on supply, transportation and more.
  • Automated time-phased, supply-demand match at every node of the value chain. ONE High Tech enables demand prioritization and allocation postponement strategies
  • Automated, pro-active alerting to notify off-line users when tailored business rules are violated.
  • Custom collaboration workflows, with role types and user permissibility. Tailor what each participant needs to do, and limit what they need to see. Issues and alerts make the process proactive, including predictive issue identification.
