Frequently asked questions

Supply chain integration is the process of connecting disparate systems and processes throughout the distribution network to allow for seamless data transmission, greater supply chain visibility and improved supplier collaboration.

Finding the resources to manage a supply chain data integration project can be difficult for smaller organizations, as is finding a flexible integrated supply chain solution that is able to scale with the changing business requirements and market conditions.

A vertically integrated supply chain is one where an organization controls the various stages of the supply chain in-house, rather than relying on external suppliers. This provides better control over the entire procurement process.

Supply chain integration software allows an organization to take greater control of all aspects of the supply chain from one central system that connects suppliers, manufacturers, distributors and buyers, offering an end-to-end view of the entire process.
