ICT & Logistiek

Your total supply chain under control!

The world around us is changing fast and digital transformation significantly impacts the way we live and do business. In our presentation we share our practical experience and insights on the Connected Supply Chain. This is one of our themes of Industry 4.0. As ICT Group we are proud that we have been chosen, by business decision-makers, as the best Digital Transformer of the Netherlands in the Software, Development & Platforms/Enablers-Overall category.

The logistics world is full of terms for improving supply chains: end-to-end visibility, supply chain sustainability, supply chain integration, collaboration. Whatever you call it, supply chains only really improve when all the links in the chain are 100% transparent, can be managed in real time and are seamlessly integrated.

Whether you are active as a supply chain manager, logistics manager or buyer in production, trade or retail: everything in a supply chain starts with overview and insight. It’s about having full control of all the steps from inbound to outbound.

Presentation

In our presentation we cover the following questions, among others:

• What does the logistics process look like for a factory, trading company or retailer
• What similarities and differences can be seen?
• Why are Excel sheets and phone calls still so dominant in the organization of supply chains?
• What advantages are there when all parts of the supply chain are truly connected?

In daily practice we regularly see that many manufacturers, trading companies and retailers do not have the entire supply chain picture complete. An order is placed, a delivery time is agreed, but then what? Orders often disappear into a more or less black hole, without sufficient insight into what happens further down the supply chain. Feedback and status updates are often provided by telephone, e-mail and Excel. This makes control almost impossible and by definition reactive. The result: long lead times, high stock levels, excessive logistics costs and customers missing out because supply and demand are not properly matched. During our presentation we will tell you which steps you can take to tackle this. We use a number of practical cases that we have carried out for our customers, like Blokker and Zeelandia.

Make sure you are there Tuesday 8 November at 11:45 am in Theatre 5.
