[ICS] Supply Chain Execution Package
Inventory accuracy and customer satisfaction go hand in hand as shortages of goods or excess inventory buildup can both lead to problems throughout the supply chain and ultimately result in poor customer service. Our Supply Chain Execution Package helps you tighten inventory control with its advanced automation and prediction tools.
One of the major success factors for most organizations is maintaining appropriate levels of stock. Having just the right amount of inventory optimizes warehouse storage, improves efficiencies of processes and workflows, and maximizes delivery performance. In light of this, gaining accurate insights into future demand fluctuations to ensure effective inventory management becomes vital for business growth and success.
[ICS] Supply Chain Execution Package uses advanced automation and data science techniques to help warehouse managers predict and effectively respond to changes in demand and assist them with stock level forecasting.
The Package is currently in development, so if you want to learn more about its future features, please contact us. We are also open to suggestions and ideas in case you are a Dynamics ERP end-user and would like to see certain functionality to be included in the final product.
The Challenge
1. Automatic calculation of surplus goods and creation of planned transfer orders to move surplus goods from the main warehouse to the logistics center warehouse
2. Automatic creation of planned transfer orders to move required goods from the logistics center warehouse to the main warehouse
3. Display of the goods stored in the logistics center warehouse and in the main warehouse using the Transfer journal
Order fulfillment is an integral part of supply chain management. As businesses grow, they face increasing consumer demand and a shortage of storage capacity. The Logistics Center Solution provides tools for optimizing planning and management of those supply chains that include an external logistics center. Our solution helps companies move excess goods to an external logistics center more efficiently and quickly replenish product needs in the main warehouse from the logistics center, so that orders can be fulfilled in a timely manner.
The Solution
The Logistics Center Solution allows you to manage inventory levels in the company’s main warehouses and in the logistics center warehouse to increase productivity and accuracy in order fulfillment by using the system’s core modules – Product Information Management, Inventory Management and Master Planning. This allows users to make real-time order decisions to reallocate goods as needed.
