Supply Chain Management: Reorganisation of Logistics Processes through the Creation of Transparent Structures
Abstract
Customer-supplier relationships have gained importance through the tapping into of rationalisation potentials. The latter bearing great significance for all those involved in the supply chain's information flow. The key problem in this information flow lies in the lack of transparency in inventory data and delivery deadlines. Results are not only high inventories in the supply chain, but also a risk of insufficient supply, inadequate response to short-term changes and the late recognition of supply bottlenecks.
