In today's economy the battlefield is shifting from individual company performance to what we call Supply Chain Performance. Supply Chain Performance refers to the extended supply chain's activities and the various elements in the chain such as forecasting, ongoing demand management, production, assembly, shipping & distribution, procurement (raw materials & finished goods).
Supply Chain Performance crosses company boundaries since it includes basic materials, components, sub-assemblies and finished products, and distribution through various channels to the end customer. It also crosses traditional functional organization lines such as procurement, manufacturing, distribution, marketing & sales, and research & development. The challenge is to inter-connect all trading partners and establish new collaborative processes that support corporate objectives for market share and supply chain cost reduction.
The Synise Supply Chain Management solutions framework enables enterprises to work seamlessly with the disparate systems of all trading partners thus enabling robust information sharing outside the company firewalls and across business boundaries.
