Last Mile Business & Technology Advisory Services:
Ensuring That Companies Go to Market with A Complete Solution
The team providing "Last Mile" services to the market
possesses an effective blend of systems integration specialists
with supply chain and operations research experts. This team spends
its time helping our clients automate processes not covered by their
SCM vendor. This lack of coverage (by the major vendors) is primarily
due to the fact that the problem as well as the near term market
opportunity does not justify (given their cost structure) the development
investment.
As much as the supply chain management application market would
like the market to believe it; there is no one size fits all solution.
Each company has different operational and market nuances. This
is part of the reason that many niche SCM vendors exist today -
they solve a problem for a particular industry that the industry
leaders can not or have chosen not to solve.
Some of the solutions developed by this group include innovative
tools to support key business processes around:
- new product introduction
- supply chain network analysis workflows
- data consolidation and validation
These tools were built result of detailed Capability Maturity Model
™ reviews of core business requirements versus the existing capabilities
of the SCM packages available today. Most of the tools are built
accommodate some of the tightest budget constraints but at the same
time deliver the level of performance companies come to expect from
enterprise-class applications.
