The age of the real-time supply chain has finally arrived. Thanks
to an emerging technology construct--the Internet-based
"mega-portal"--companies can now connect instantaneously with
suppliers, distributors, manufacturers, customers, and alliance
partners around the world. Online access to up-to-the-minute
information enables companies to improve communication and project
management across the entire supply chain, promote collaboration
across departments, and enhance customer service and financial
operations. The results are stunning; for example, a recent survey
reports dramatic increases in revenues and customer retention and
decreases in operating costs and product cycle times. Drawing from
extensive primary research, this book presents detailed examples of
how organizations as diverse as Coca-Cola Bottling Company, Dell,
and the U.S. Department of Defense are creating information and
communication hubs online and reaping the rewards. The authors
explain the basic technical and organizational infrastructure
necessary for launching a mega-portal and how its successful
management can have profound impact on every area and function of
the extended enterprise--from strategy to logistics, product
development to customer service. As competition heats up from every
direction, the ability to design and manage your supply chain with
precision and speed becomes a business imperative. In Real Time
offers a practical blueprint for building, implementing, and
sustaining supply chains in today's rapidly changing environment.
