As the supply chain has become more complex and difficult to monitor, the need for effective management has become critical. Simultaneously, it has become rich with data that empowers stakeholders with the insights needed to mitigate risks and minimize disruptions, uncover and reduce inefficiencies, and anticipate changing customer demands. Information Builders' WebFOCUS BI and analytics platform brings transparency to the supply chain by providing access to real-time, comprehensive insights across the network. This allows organizations to quickly and efficiently assess plant, warehouse, and distribution center activity, measure performance against key metrics, and anticipate factors that impact performance. However, this comprehensive view is only possible when the underlying data in an organization's myriad supply chain application is integrated and governed. By bringing together vital information from both internal and external sources, such as those maintained by suppliers and other third parties, businesses can begin to break down supply chain silos, seamlessly automate order processing and other activities, and eliminate the costs associated with bad data. WebFOCUS Supply Chain Analytics in Action Using WebFOCUS' self-service capabilities, vital information is now instantly available around product transportation, inventory, warehouse activities, and customer needs. Additionally, exception-based reports are automatically distributed when activities fall outside of typical parameters, helping Lipari to spot potential errors in orders and shipments, for instance, and address them quickly. As a result of insights from the transparent information environment, Lipari Foods has identified new ways to leverage data and streamline its business. For example, the company used the insights to optimize one of its warehouses and eliminate the need for costly expansions. Michael C.
