Organisation are gradually adapting to supply chains’ increase in complexity, globalisation, and to the fact that performance in more difficult to predict. Supply chain planners and managers today have roles that go beyond traditional operation duties and have to take more strategic steps to build fully integrated and resilient supply chains capable of generating competitive advantage whilst mitigating the risks associated with extended supply networks. Safety nets are being put in place to deal with supplier failures or distribution partners and all too often result in increased inventories that not only raise working capital but also clog up the warehouses and do not necessarily result in increased service levels. Air freight is reaching a new high in terms of expenditure and not only affects bottom lines but also margins.
Therefore to deal with the unexpected, organisations need to look internally at their ability to become more agile, with smarter replenishment processes, inventory optimisation techniques and advanced distribution planning capabilities.
A single integrated planning and performance management system to manage all operations across the supply chain allows people to gain:
* Full synchronization of activities: process acceleration and less production, distribution and stock keeping costs
* Concurrent planning and trade-off analysis which allow minimizing Supply Chain risks
* Agility to demand and slashed planning time by as much as 50%
TXTPLAN helps people optimize your specific supply chain operations by providing a combination of first class optimization algorithms, advanced what-if capabilities and performance management capabilities within an integrated environment for production, inventory, distribution and replenishment planning.
