Inventory Planning Helps Balance Costs and Service Levels
Inventory faces pressure from all sides, particularly in an omni-channel marketplace. Reduce inventory too much and customer service might suffer. Maintain too much safety stock and you’ve got excess cash tied up. Inventory control is often tied directly to ERP to the exclusion of other activities, creating a silo where inventory planners don't have proper access to vital data which affects all parts of the supply chain.
Halo’s platform, supported by an advanced data warehouse, seamlessly incorporates ERP data with qualitative information to balance inventory with supply. Business users can quickly and easily run history-based what-if simulations to optimize safety-stock while maintaining desired service levels and costs.
When Inventory is tied into the supply chain:
- Costly safety stock can be reduced because risk can be better managed
- Customer issues due to late delivery become fewer and less crisis-driven
- Critical part shortages that destroy workflow can be managed or eliminated
Supplier Management Is Your Control Tower for Better Relationships
Diversity and geographic distribution of today’s supply chain brings risk and volatility. Analyzing supplier performance and scoring each supplier according to a risk profile reduces the occurrence of shortages and provides insights to manage and mitigate the effect and cost of a disruption.
Halo's supply chain software connects internal and external data sources to foster collaboration with suppliers and provide up-to-the minute visibility across your extended supply chain. Supplier Risk Profiles and Ranking identify where your chain might be vulnerable so you can plan alternatives.
Halo sends alerts when thresholds aren’t met or disruptions happen so you can make informed decisions and remedy issues before they cause downtime, create additional costs, or impact service levels. Find out more
