The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted supply chains across the world. For a majority of businesses, siloed data has made coordination a nimble response to market changes. More than ever, organisations need to now understand the nuances of demand and supply forecasting and leverage human intelligence to react in real-time.
In other words, organisations need to put the right product at the right time and the right place at the right price point. The good news is that every tool they require to gain a distinctive advantage already exists, thanks to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply Chain Management (F&SCM), which was formerly known as Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations.
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply Chain Management offers mid-sized businesses and enterprises the flexibility, visibility, and accessibility to data that they require to efficiently and proactively manage supply chain disruptions.
Better inventory management
One of the biggest advantages of Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&SCM is that it allows organisations to gain a clear and complete understanding of the goods they have on hand and in transit. Through priority-based planning, organisations can define the priority for a critical supply to go to a critical location and avoid straight date-based functionality. This leads to greater responsiveness and agility.
Accurate production and warehouse forecasting
With eyes on the inventory, scaling down or up to adjust for the next economic shift becomes far more manageable and allows organisations to gain the time and perspective they require to focus on research and innovation.
Early detection of production and quality issues
Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&SCM helps organisations recognize the visibility of snags across the supply chain before they become costly problems. As delays and blips become visible, it becomes easier for organisations to proactively address them to prevent reputational damage and save valuable time.
Reduced delays
Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&SCM allows for resource- and time-saving all along the supply chain. Insights can be leveraged to coordinate logistics, print labels, and optimise truckloads to prevent delays. This allows organisations to make direct and instantly connections with customers and other stakeholders.
