Forecasting

Since the Supply Chain Control Tower processes real time data and makes this available to every connected supply chain partner or party, you can access the latest statuses of transport, stocks and costs at any given time. The Control Tower for instance predicts ETAs (expected times of arrival) and you can configure when you wish to be informed through a automated notification in case of a change of data (actual vs planned).

Management dashboard

An incident or non-conformity is detected and registered whenever actual data is not in line with planned data.

An adaptive and customizable workflow allows you to determine what action is to be taken whenever a certain incident occurs.
