Supply chain law, supply chain bottlenecks: Procurement is under pressure
In a global sourcing network, it is business-critical to respond quickly to changes. Companies are expected to ensure production at all times, despite limited resources and uncertain forecasts about how the global situation will develop. The new supply chain law also sets out extended due diligence requirements for the entire supply chain - from raw material to finished sales product.

Make predictions to avoid supply bottlenecks
The procurement manager of a leading machine builder must ensure that all components are always available in the right quantity and quality.
With the help of custom dashboards, he has defined a threshold value for each product based on predicted demand. As soon as the demand falls below this value, the system automatically triggers orders for all required product components from the respective sources.
Automatic bookings and prioritization
The most time-critical task of a fulfillment manager is to process all incoming orders quickly.
Depending on the volume, urgency, importance as well as type of incoming orders, custom dashboards put their processing in an intelligent order. In addition, they automatically book all resources such as equipment and personnel needed to process the orders.
Monitor product quality and supplier relationships
A procurement manager, responsible for complete supplier performance management, has negotiated SLAs with each supplier.
These must be monitored continuously. Based on the fulfillment of these SLAs as well as the quality of the delivered components (e.g. damage rate), custom dashboards automatically determine a rating for each supplier, helping him optimize his supplier portfolio.
