Supply chain management in an uncertain climate

Supply chain management has always been complex, but the pandemic has added an additional layer of complexity for manufacturers. A control tower model for supply chain management supported by an advanced planning and scheduling (APS) system can help prevent and manage disruptions in this difficult environment. Download the infographic for details on the control tower approach and how APS software supports it.

The control tower model for supply chain management

The control tower approach to supply chain management creates full visibility into all the segments of the supply chain, giving stakeholders the information they need at their fingertips to make planning and scheduling decisions. Patterns in the supply chain can be dynamic and complex, so it’s not enough to get a snapshot of its status at one point in time.

APS software for supply chain planning

Advanced planning and scheduling software, like Opcenter APS, can support this approach to supply chain planning and management. Efficient production planning is crucial to mastering the supply chain. An APS software system can support critical decision-making on production plans.
