Closed Loop Multi-Party Supplier Collaboration

One Network Intelligent Supply helps companies reduce costs and improve service levels by synchronizing planning and execution processes across all supply network participants including manufacturers, co-manufacturers, co-packers, component suppliers, raw material suppliers, MRO providers and carriers.  The solution combines planning, execution, fulfillment, collaboration and business intelligence into a single multi-party, multi-echelon cloud-based solution that was designed to embrace existing enterprise systems.

Unlike alternative solutions, Intelligent Supply continuously monitors changes to demand and supply to allow companies to plan, execute and collaborate with their entire supply network in a synchronous and closed loop fashion. The solution leverages demand, inventory, capacity, in-transit and in-process supply to auto generate replenishment requirements and provide end-to-end visibility of planning and execution information to the entire value chain from procurement to payment.

The S&OP services will plan all productions schedules, capacity/raw material requirements for both long-term planning and short-term execution. These plans flow seamlessly into the demand driven execution system and – with the advanced sense and respond capability – enable companies to become more proactive with the ability to identify potential supply and demand exceptions and automatically re-plan to avoid disruptions … all in real time.

As a global strategic sourcing solution, Intelligent Supply can support all types of items, procurement models and order types such as finished goods, raw material, indirect material, spares and MRO. The solution enables P2P, Kanban, lean manufacturing, JIT, VMI and consignment programs on a single platform while providing full support for all members of the network. The integrated business intelligence and analytics capability provides supplier scorecarding and spend analysis across all programs and order types.

With the One Network Intelligent Supply solution, manufacturers, co-manufacturers, co-packers, component, raw material and MRO suppliers leverage a single multi-party, many-to-many cloud based platform that integrates with existing enterprise systems to provide an accurate, common view of all value chain operations. Delivered as a SaaS network in the cloud, the solution requires no installation and immediate access to trading partners to provide significant time to value for customers and reduced implementation costs.
