Infor Supply Chain Execution

It’s no longer enough to optimize the performance of each segment of your supply chain. To reach top
performance, you need to view and operate your entire supply chain as a unified whole that encompasses participants both inside and outside the company, including customers, contractors, and suppliers. Studies show that companies with the most fully integrated supply chain technology invariably rank among the top industry performers in every respect. End-to-end supply chain visibility combined with an efficient execution system can help you make better decisions and execute those decisions more quickly and profitably.

Organon determines optimum way to fulfill demand with Infor SCM

Organon produces prescription medicines from raw material (or “active material”). The company’s core business is
developing the products and addressing specific local market needs. However, each country has its own constraints. For example, French regulatory affairs require that the information included on and in the package is written in French, while in other countries like Sweden, Norway, or Denmark, other languages are required. Another geographical difference is branding. It’s possible that the same drug has a different name per country because of cultural influences or simply because the name has a different meaning in the native language.

The Complexities of Task Scheduling

For food, beverage, chemical, and other process manufacturers, the use of volume-based assets such as tanks, silos, drums, and vats can make the production scheduling process extremely complex. To effectively schedule volumes, process manufacturers need solutions designed for the unique needs of their industry. However, many solutions are not equipped to manage the challenges of
volume scheduling.

It discusses techniques that have been developed to forecast demand and manage the inventory for such items.
