SupplyOn Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI):
Optimal Production Planning with High Supply Reliability
As you need reliable information on the daily shipment requirements to your customers, you will need optimized production planning numbers to ensure shipments keep up with production demand. SupplyOn Vendor Managed Inventory makes this information available to you and enables you to ship according to plant requirement rather than guessing what the customer requires. You can then optimize production planning and prevent production shortages – and lower costs at the same time.
How it works: SupplyOn Vendor Managed Inventory lets you view the stock on hand and requirements planning of your customers. You then independently maintain warehouse stock levels within agreed minimum and maximum limits. E-mail alerts are automatically sent to users if stock levels exceed or fall below defined limits. The stock situation can be visualized for any period into the future to permit timely identification of potentially critical situations. Scheduled deliveries can also be simulated to see how current stock in hand changes as a result of newly entered quantities.
