Supply Chain Management

Today’s customers increasingly expect products from around the world to be locally available as and when they wish to buy them. Companies must respond with increasingly sophisticated supply chain management facilities, ensuring the right product is available at the right place at the right time.

There is a growing trend for companies to service individual regions and countries by means of a network of distribution centres, serviced by a central distribution facility.

This business strategy is driven by the demands of the end consumer in wanting products quickly. The end to end supply chain needs to be extremely reactive and efficient in all of its processes.

To assist with the increasing complexities in this area, a wide variety of integrated computer system facilities are now available.

The needs of individual businesses are different and with the proliferation of systems on the market it is becoming more and more difficult for a company to make the crucial selection of the right system.
