Current Situation
Supply chain processes are fragmented and disconnected. There is a perpetual gap between supply chain planning inputs and supply chain execution outputs as differing supply chain functions operate independently in terms of both process and systems.
Goals and Objectives
Provide an integrated supply chain design where planning drives execution and execution drives planning to reduce the variance between plan and actual performance.
Technology Deployed
Hardware: IoT and mobile
Software: Cloud, BDA, and cognitive
Services: Business consulting and IT services
Use Case Summary
There will be alignment between supply chain planning and supply chain execution built on the foundation of digitally enable processes and an integrated systems architecture.
