A manufacturer’s supply chain is mission critical to ensuring that production lines keep producing products that generate revenue. However, the task of sharing and confirming forecasts, capacity, and Planned Orders, is often a highly manual process where timely changes, updates and additional information is often not possible.

Ivalua’s Supply Chain Collaboration solutions make real-time collaboration across the supply chain possible on material forecasts, available capacity, and Planned Orders. These capabilities streamline the process of securing the supply chain and reducing the risk of disruption.

Collaborative confirmation of material forecasts & capacity

• Share demand forecasts: Share forecasts for one or several materials from an MRP system with suppliers.
• Secure supply chain needs: Enable digital collaboration between buyer and supplier to secure volumes required per period.
• Preempt potential supply chain disruptions: Confirm suppliers’ capacity to meet demand at a line-item level, identify potential disruptions and take action
