Supply Chain Management
Solution Overview
Supply Chain Management (SCM) often amounts to a complex task that requires the combination of many distinct (yet interconnected) networks, channels, and nodes. Once unified, these components form a system capable of creating and provisioning the products and services required by end customers.
By actively managing supply chain(s), companies can deliver products to end customers more efficiently. This results in lower costs (and higher profitability), leading to higher customer satisfaction, which cycles into additional demand.

Strategic Supply Chains
Supply chain management (SCM) refers to processes for managing the flow of goods and services between entities and locations. A “supply chain” can encompass everything from sourcing, product development, and production-to-shipment/distribution. This includes the movement and storage of raw materials, work-in-process (WIP) inventory, finished goods, and end-to-end order fulfillment (i.e., from the point of origin to the point of consumption).
- SCM often amounts to a complex task that requires the combination of many distinct (yet interconnected) networks, channels, and nodes. Once unified, these components form a system capable of creating and provisioning the products and services required by end customers.
By actively managing supply chain(s), companies can deliver products to end customers more efficiently. This results in lower costs (and higher profitability), leading to higher customer satisfaction, which cycles into additional demand.
The Dynamic Supply Chain
Companies of all types and sizes increasingly depend on real-time information about ongoing developments that impact their businesses. As a result, maintaining dynamic and holistic visibility into the entire supply chain system has become imperative to business success.
However, many companies have been forced to take speculative, reactive approaches – rather than proactive, data-driven actions – when managing their overall operations. Legacy systems often provide limited insight into a company’s supply chain network, primarily due to the lack of accurate, dynamic, and/or complete data. As a result, many executives have learned to rely on “best-guess” forecasting. As this name implies, such projections might – or might not – match the “on-the-ground” realities at that company’s various locations and geographies.
While the idea of supply chains goes back centuries, they have only recently been viewed as a potential source of competitive advantage and operational efficiency. In response, global corporations have begun incorporating dynamic data in an attempt to better manage – and optimize – their supply chain.
