Many would say that in sports, in life, and in business, learning the rules, agreeing on the rules, and applying those rules most effectively are crucial advantages in achieving your objectives. This advice is particularly true as it relates to Supply Chain Planning. At ChainSequence, we teach your business the proven, best-practice rules of supply chain engineering science, as well as how to best leverage these principles when planning, re-aligning, or re-engineering your enterprise’s supply chain processes.
All supply chain planning processes comprise the same set of core components: Demand Management, Supply Management, Demand/Supply Alignment, and Order Management. First, our supply chain planning services are designed to give businesses a much better understanding of 1) how these interdependent elements can support each other and align together; and 2) what differentiates a best-in-class supply chain planning process from other, less systematic approaches. Next, we help your business develop and implement those governing rules that are considered best practices within each component. Finally, we integrate these practices across all four elements within the supply chain spectrum.
Before your teams can bring in software systems to provide decision support and speed up to a better process, ChainSequence helps your business build and provide potential software systems vendors a clear set of rules and direction to ensure that your corporate goals and financial objectives will be achieved. Once these rules are clearly defined, the ChainSequence team can also help your business consider the software systems and tools which offer the best ROI for your organization.
