Supply Dynamics Named a 2013 'Great Supply Chain Partner' By SupplyChainBrain
08/22/2013 - Supply Dynamics, a leading source of multi-enterprise technology solutions that provide visibility, collaboration, and control of supply in distributed manufacturing environments, announced that it has been selected as one of 2013’s ‘Great Supply Chain Partners’ by SupplyChainBrain, a supply chain management information resource.
For more than a decade, Supply Dynamics has been a pioneer and a leading provider of innovative multi-enterprise supply chain solutions. Fortune 1000 manufacturing companies from a diverse set of industries turn to Supply Dynamics’ solutions in order to recapture visibility and control of the materials that flow into their outsourced production parts, components, and assemblies. Often overlooked, raw material inputs and associated sourcing issues represent both a critical cost driver and significant risk factor affecting the price and timely delivery of finished parts. By systematically capturing the unique relationships and interdependencies that exist between parts, materials, processes and finished goods, Supply Dynamics’ clients are able to aggregate their total ‘network’ volume of raw materials, irrespective of whether purchased directly, or sourced by their sub-tier supply base on the OEM’s behalf. Powerful reporting, analytic and collaboration capabilities, allow the OEM to communicate and leverage demand, as well as implement the processes, metrics, and controls to safeguard supply, improve performance, and reduce cost of goods sold.
‘Best-in-Class’ Solution Combines Technology & Unique Data Modeling Capabilities.
The cornerstone of Supply Dynamics product offering is OASIS 8.0; a highly configurable, robust multi-enterprise platform that allows companies to capture the unique relationships between parts, materials, processes, and finished goods for their extended supply chain. OASIS 8.0 provides secure, role-based access, and is delivered via the ‘Cloud.’ Users have real-time access to critical multi-enterprise data that would not otherwise be available in any one system or belong to any one entity. Supply Dynamics’ clients and their external supply chain partners have realized profound benefits through collaboration, improved planning processes, reduced raw material and finished part prices. Operating in concert across a common process framework within a single ‘system of truth,’ OEMs can leverage their aggregate network raw material demand, broadcast that demand throughout the supply base to reduce/remove unnecessary inventory, improve lead-times, and proactively identify and address supply issues before they arise.
“Supply chain complexity is at an all-time high with outsourced manufacturing on a global scale found in virtually every industry,” said Trevor Stansbury, founder and president of Supply Dynamics. “We continue to focus on delivering innovative solutions that allow our Clients to understand their aggregate network material demand actively influence, coordinate, and control supply on behalf of their extended value chain. We are delighted that SupplyChainBrain has recognized Supply Dynamics and the unique value we deliver to our clients,” added Stansbury.
