Manufacturers are realizing the benefits of tightening relationships with suppliers to better manage the procurement of goods and lower supply costs. Collaborative processes transform a typical transaction-based association with suppliers into two-way-access and a mutually beneficial relationship. This builds a more effective manufacturer-supplier partnership that lowers inbound supply costs and improves supplier performance. Both parties gain from accurate and timely access to order, shipment, schedule, invoice, inventory and other related information. Or, as one QAD client stated, “The YFAI India plant and all our suppliers can now plan resources, machines, manpower, everything – based on these updatable schedules.”
Companies that strive to build a more holistic relationship with their suppliers must commit to collaboration on a day-to-day basis and treat it as a vital step in building trust with the supplier ecosystem. More cooperation during day-to-day supply chain operations, as well as quicker responses to changing orders and schedules, benefit both parties. Often, your organization will see lower procurement costs, improved operational efficiency and greater customer satisfaction as a result of improved collaboration with suppliers.
Manufacturers still rely on outdated processes or fail to understand the role supplier integration plays in maximizing global supply chain performance. Organizations we work with often mention the desire for a single source of truth that improves decision-making with suppliers based on the same set of information. Along with the global and swiftly changing nature of sourcing, inbound supply challenges include:

With greater access to shared information, you and your suppliers can respond quicker to possible inbound supply issues that will disrupt your business and impact the customer experience.
