4 Steps to Greater Supply Chain Resilience
Aug 29, 20232 mins read
Today, more than ever, a resilient supply chain is a must for companies to successfully navigate in a continually changing and often volatile business climate. But not only is an optimized supply chain vital for efficiently managing business operations — according to the Boston Consulting Group, it enables companies to enjoy better outcomes than their peers.
The foundation for a resilient supply chain is intelligent, adaptive supply chain management that enables a real-time view across your business with the ability to raise any potential issues before they cause disruption. Reaching across various areas of your business, including planning, procurement, manufacturing (mixed-mode and project-driven supply chain), procurement, order management, logistics, and product lifecycle management, supply chain management (SCM) is the backbone for high-performance operations. All of these areas must be connected and integrated to add value to your business and your customers. But where do you start?
Most likely, you will start with your data. However, before diving in, you need to look at any SCM initiative holistically. Start with your desired business outcomes to ensure you have the right roadmap and strategy for leveraging technology and processes to support your goals.
