Supply Chain, Procurement And Manufacturing

Improve Supply Chain Effectiveness

A supply chain is a large and complex function comprising procurement, manufacturing and logistics. It spans many businesses from suppliers to customers and involves many people at different levels. It is highly dependent upon many factors, yet equally governs others to the same degree. Managing supply chain performance requires collaboration and clear analyses, leading participants to problems needing action, and also the functionality to effect these actions via the best methods tailored to your supply chain.

Entalysis supply chain, procurement and manufacturing solutions only extend to areas of weak or missing reporting or functionality within the relevant management information systems; although a supply chain may be large, if the weakness is solely in one specific area, then this will be the extent of the Entalysis solution.

Functionality

Within an ERP system, supply chain processes require much data calculation, often based on user-determined parameters entered through particular functionality; examples include product replenishment lead times, forecasts, and works order scheduling. Entalysis Supply Chain solutions have a range of core functionality which can be implemented as required and tailored specifically to your business. A few examples are outlined below, and please contact us if you would like to discuss this further.

Demand Forecasting and Management

A forecast's prime requirement is that everyone whom it affects believes it is accurate and optimal. Collaboration is a key factor here, not only to refine the forecast with every participant's input, but to also build a consensus. The process is on-going, where the forecast errors are tracked over time and used in safety stock calculations as well as further refinement of the forecast.
