Cloud-Based Supply Chain Technology vs. Traditional On-Premise Software
This tech brief presents 5 compelling reasons why cloud supply chain platforms outperform traditional solutions. You will learn:
- How traditional systems introduce artificial delays into critical processes, resulting in service failures and excess inventory
- How traditional systems’ disjointed data leads to poor decisions
- The cloud shortcut that eliminates the time-consuming and costly process that’s part and parcel of most traditional solutions
- The next major leap in supply chain performance, and why it can only be driven by the cloud
Push vs. Pull Solutions for Supply Chains
- What all the companies in the Gartner Top 25 have in common
- The “peanut butter” approach and why it is inevitable in a push system
- The big flaw underlying all push systems (no matter how sophisticated)
- Why retailers are the biggest casualties of the push system
- How a pull system liberates you from the “peanut butter approach” and lets you take advantage of multiple replenishment policies as needed
- Why a pull system prevents inventory “pile up” at the store
- 5 major benefits of a pull system, including 30% reduction in inventory, and 20% increase in perfect orders
CPFR Versus Demand Driven Value Networks Replenishment
- Why CPFR is falling short in today’s fast-paced environment
- How Demand Driven Value Networks (DDVN) enable much more efficient pull systems
- Why you should be wary of “pull-based” replenishment capabilities in traditional systems
- The incredible statistic on demand planning implementation failures
- The advantages you can expect from a DDVN including, full internal and external visibility, and real time replenishment signals across the entire network
