Multienterprise Collaboration Networks
Visibility
Visibility is key to business collaboration. If you are in distribution of products, you would like to know the inventory position at each of the members in the distribution network or a sub-network (regional network) in order to plan your distribution and efficiently manage you inventory across the regions and avoid undesired inventory of products in the network. This assists you in assessing the movement of products in real-time and critical to your decision on manufacturing or procurement of the product (s).
Visibility provides direct access to the own network thus reducing any time lag in data sharing or compilation. Information is available as and when required and key to strategic planning.
Based on the size of your distribution network, you can opt for a suitable subscription. Go ahead and create your own distribution network and drill down the inventory position of products or value of products till last customer/ retailer.
You can restrict product availability in the distribution chain and network, enforce pricing strategy, enforce inventory strategy, move inventory from one chain to another for inventory optimization (from slow moving region to fast moving region), automate purchase orders, automate dispatches, collaborate with network members for documentation and data and many more. In fact, your network operates without paper trail.
