Orderwise Senior Product Manager, Carrie Tallett features in a special report looking at trends and areas of innovation taking place within the world of supply chain management technology. The report highlights how the right tech stack can help companies anticipate and respond to challenges, giving them the resilience and flexibility they need in times of uncertainty.
Excerpt:
“There’s huge advantage to having supply chain visibility. However, it’s not just the visibility, it’s the insight it provides when there are challenges. Peak season for retailers is a great example of this. You know there will be hot items, products that will fly off the shelves. Having advanced insight into potential challenges within your supply chain is going to help mitigate them, maintain the customer experience and protect revenues.
"The advantage of software such as Orderwise, is that you can record who your alternative suppliers are, so if you’re not able to fulfil the demand, you can take the appropriate steps. This protects the customers – who are naturally the priority in this scenario – giving them the outcome they’re seeking, as well as solidifying you as a favoured supplier; a real win-win.”
