Differentiating with Data - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

Supply chains need to be more efficient. Lean techniques need to gain a better foothold and to mature. Customer satisfaction needs to go up.

One common thread among these problems: Creative use of data can make the difference. Manufacturing companies can differentiate themselves and become more effective by deploying easy-to-consume data to their employees, supply chains, and customers. For instance, manufacturers can:

    Provide proof that complete shipments are being sent on time, thereby avoiding short-shipping charges
    Show suppliers their performance relative to each other, motivating them to perform better
    Demonstrate which suppliers are related to higher defect rates, enabling smarter order management and cost effectiveness
    Enable customers to see their histories, rush charges, and other metrics, enabling them to see how they can work with the manufacturer to get the best service and lower cost

Join industry expert John Brandt as he discusses real-life ways in which manufacturers use data to streamline operations, make better decisions, and communicate with others. In addition, Information Builders Vice President Jake Freivald will follow up with a framework for data strategy that can used by all types of manufacturers, large and small, to help them achieve those goals.
