Industrial Manufacturing Industry
Supply chain resilience is a key focus for manufacturers. Optimize operations and stay competitive with a connected network and cross-functional technology to gain visibility and control—even amidst ongoing disruptions.
Reinvent Your Supply Chain
Understand the impact of current realities on the ground—across your entire supply chain—by leveraging real-time data and AI. Verify supplies, deliver the right products, predict consumer demand and collaborate with trading partners to solve any issue together.
Ups and Downs of Demand and Supply
The demand surges and overall optimism for growth in industrial manufacturing have created a positive backdrop, but supply constraints keep cutting into the financial benefits that typically come with high demand. If your focus is on profitability, gaining a clear view of demand and supply across your multi-enterprise network and the agility to minimize the impacts of disruptions will be critical to your success.
Visibility and Collaboration
Greater visibility across the supply chain enables OEMs and suppliers to collaborate to address shortages together. When manufacturers invest in data integration across every tier of suppliers and contract manufacturers, all parties can plan the appropriate buffer inventory with confidence, knowing that the whole supply chain is ready deliver on its commitments to customers.
Unprecedented Supply Constraints
Across all sectors of industrial manufacturing, companies are re-evaluating their sourcing strategies to increase agility and resiliency. Unprecedented shortages and logistics delays have companies evaluating alternative suppliers, near-shoring and reassessing inventory levels across the supply chain, because missing a single component or raw material can halt the delivery of products to customers.
Profitable Border Crossings
Leveraging free trade agreements (FTAs) can bring another set of advantages to manufacturers, although the task can be extraordinarily complex unless the right technology and processes are in place. Considering the diversity of high-level compliance risks involving export controls, restricted parties and customs filing regulations, access to a trade regulation database and automated trade agreement processes is needed to help ensure regulatory compliance, reduce costs and prevent illicit trade.
