It give an operation the platform to create and test effective business strategies and plan ahead by incorporating commands for necessary preemptive strikes. From the perspective of manufacturing, inventory has always been the focal point of problem solving. Once we could develop solutions for various inventory problems, we could have much better chance to derive solutions for other problems. Be mindful that iRIMAU is an enabler to the far-reaching industry-level end-to-end visibility. When we align iRIMAU with individual enterprise-level, it serves as a “Guardian” to the decision-makers of individual manufacturing enterprises in connection with the problems as follows:
Inability to determine the impact of incidents occurs along the upstream of demand-supply chain
Inability to reschedule orders until the impacts along the downstream of demand-supply chain enter into the control of the enterprise
Inability to be alerted by late shipment from vendors along the upstream of demand-supply chain
Inability to identify competitive vendors along the upstream of demand-supply chain
Inability to analyze own demand-supply chain network performance as benchmark against competitors
Inability to be altered by late rescheduling by customers along the downstream of demand-supply chain
Inability to schedule just-in-time delivery of materials and finished goods along the demand-supply chain echelon in both upstream and downstream
Inability to maintain appropriate safety stock when the lumpiness of upstream and downstream demand-supply chain showing fat standard deviation
Inability to track-and-trace the quality of purchased parts along the upstream of demand-supply chain
Inability to predict the allocation of finished-goods inventory to customer orders along the downstream of demand-supply chain
Inability to provide customers with timely and accurate information when upstream and downstream of demand-supply chain do not follow predetermined forecast
Inability to manage cash flow at optimal level the lumpiness of upstream and downstream demand-supply chain showing fat standard deviation
Inability to perform accurate pricing of customer orders resulted from the lumpiness of upstream and downstream demand-supply chain showing fat standard deviation
