Visibility in Supply Chain
'Reaching Beyond the Four Walls' - an article in the July '05 issue of Modern Materials Handling quotes me:
Better supply chain coordination also may require systems that model business processes and service level expectations between trading partners, says Mayur Goyal, manager of market development, transportation and logistics, with Yantra (978-513-6000). The foundation, he says, is shared business processes. "We believe visibility is a business process challenge, not an event management problem," he says. "For instance, what are the business rules, or service level agreements, you need to adhere to? You need some system in place to synchronize all of these activities."
