Supply chain is the soul of the manufacturing and wholesale distribution business. No matter how fast and how efficiently you convert raw materials into finished products, you need a robust and dependable supply chain to move that product from your factories and warehouses to the end user.

Without a seamless supply chain, entire process of manufacturing and distribution crumbles, and organizations have to encounter heavy losses. Loss of customer faith and goodwill, besides financial losses, is the result.

One of the biggest problems which manufacturers and wholesale distributors face with supply chain management is tracking of the shipment, and receiving/delivering timely updates related to the movement of products.

This is how NetSuite solves these problems, and ensures that the supply chain is not disrupted at any cost.

Welcome to a dependable, dynamic and data-driven supply chain management, which actually works.

Supply Chain Control Tower: The Magical Solution

NetSuite has worked with thousands of manufacturers, wholesalers and distributors across the world, and they have very accurately mapped out the inherent issues faced in supply chain management.

Be it Forbes 500 organization or a small SME, the biggest problem which supply chain management faces is a seamless way to track and monitor the shipments, across the globe.

Supply Chain Control Tower is one such solution, which enables NetSuite’s Supply Chain Management module to efficiently and effectively track each and every shipment, on a global scale.

Within this module is a feature called The Control Tower Snapshot, which allows users to get a global time phase view of their shipments via one single glance.

The results can be easily filtered via subsidiary and location, which empowers the manufacturer and distributor to correctly find out the exact position of their shipment, anywhere in the world.

This helps them to find out the imbalance between demand and supply, and take proactive action if needed to rectify it.

For further action, the entire data can be exported in excel sheets, and shared with the entire team to brainstorm the solutions required.

This single feature can drastically improve entire supply chain process of the organization, and enable them to make the process robust and dependable.

The Next Level Of Demand Management

Supply Chain management receives a shot in the arm with this advanced feature of demand management, wherein based on historical demand and sales predictions, the manufacturer and distributors can correctly forecast the demand.

This means that they can enable faster supply chain of the products which are in demand, and slow down the shipments of those items which are not urgently required. This translates to better resource management, optimal utilization of resources, and super-efficient delivery of products, at the right time, at the right place.

This can be a game-changer for the time-critical supply chain management.

100% Cloud Advantage: Access Data Anywhere, Anytime

Since NetSuite is 100% Cloud ERP solution, all the data and forecasts and business intelligence can be accessed vi mobile or laptop/tablet, anywhere from the world.

Hence, the management and the supervisors need not be physically present to monitor and track the supply chain.
