Expert Opinions on the State of Supply Chain Execution

November 12, 2010, 10:13 am

In this recent Consumer Goods Technology article, The State of Supply Chain Execution, industry thought leaders, including Management Dynamics CEO Jim Preuninger, give their opinions on today’s challenges and trends affecting supply chain execution.

A key discussion point in the article is how, though faced with tough economic times, companies are still investing in technologies that help streamline their supply chains operations.

Many companies, particularly manufacturers, including consumer goods manufacturers, have seen the value in using GTM software to lower costs, ensure regulatory compliance, improve customer service and automate many facets of a company’s supply chain operations. Two capabilities that consumer goods companies are using to weather the downturn are supply chain visibility and international trade compliance. These tools provide an immediate and visible return on investment, enabling companies to reduce costs, improve operations, shrink manual data entry errors, facilitate cross border movements and improve customer service.

In addition to cutting costs, GTM software can also be used to address sustainability concerns. According to Mr. Preuninger:

In the case of GTM software, sustainability efforts can be addressed on a few fronts. Reducing cycle times, eliminating bottlenecks, improving distribution networks, lowering out-ofstocks and determining the best way to ship freight can also lower emissions, an ecological goal for many companies.
