Reduce costs and accelerate time to market.
Optimizing the distribution network and rationalizing inventories in a multi-echelon supply chain is critical for the chemical and bulk materials manufacturing industry. Strict regulatory requirements and environmental controls add more pressure to business. Flat-to-declining prices are on each competitor’s list of top concerns. To be competitive, supply chains must continuously focus efforts on shortening lead times, handling more volume and reducing inventory expense—while ensuring constant replenishment and great customer service. Effective planning is essential. It can also get complicated. To keep prices as low as possible, many companies are focused on becoming more demand-driven. Production and distribution needs must be synchronized with time-phased demand plans in order for the supply chain to operate with maximum efficiency.
