Commerce / Consumer Product Industries
The face of the consumer product industry is shaped among others, by companies in the field of textiles, foods and beverage, cosmetics, wholesale and retailing, as well as household goods.
Delivery and value adding chains in this industry have always been complex. A key to the success of these companies, especially in the fast moving consumer goods industry is flexibility and being quick to adapt to customer needs.
Key Questions in Commerce / Consumer Product Industries:
- How intensely do I manage my inbound and outbound supply chain partners?
- Does using my IT-/ERP based inventory control system cover the necessities of my value adding chain, or must processes and structures be reviewed and adapted?
- How does an end-to-end supply chain solution work with it-systems, e.g. regarding logistics; Are specific SCM and CRM solutions interlinked with the inventory control system?
- What kind of focus are we putting on sustainability of purchase in regard to procurement logistics and do I know my supplier chain if I source from low-wage countries?
