Industries
eVizibility solutions are relevant to almost any industry. Your company may be a supplier in High Tech that has manufacturing plants and raw material suppliers located in low cost countries and customers scattered across the globe. Alternatively, you could be a manufacturer dealing with specialized suppliers of materials and parts where timeliness and availability are critical.
Telecommunications, consumer products and electronics companies and their suppliers are equally challenged with unpredictable demand and the need to ensure products and services are delivered as "perfect orders" at all times.
In addition to major players, there are hundreds of small and medium sized organizations in health, hi-tech, consumer products, manufacturing, entertainment and countless other industries that are simply trying to get "more from less" as they compete in markets where margins are low and every penny counts. In many cases, being able to get visibility into operational performance is a first step and often all that is required is to leverage or combine the information that already exists in systems and spreadsheets. Other organizations are looking to improve internal business processes (e.g. forecasting, new product introduction) or are wanting to collaborate and trade electronically with partners to share efficiency savings or speed up time to market, distribution etc...
Challenges that organizations face or want to tackle, regardless of industry, include:
- Streamlining business processes
- Visibility into their supply base and the movement of materials and goods
- Managing collaborative processes with business partners
- Matching demand and supply to respond more effectively to customer demand
- Competing more effectively for customer loyalty
- Improved inventory management
- Increased governmental regulations
- Volatility of consumer demand
- Sell-side visibility into customer stores and distribution networks
- Variable supply and unpredictable lead times
- Long product and service contract life cycles
- Global dependencies for manufacture, service, and logistics
- Rising materials and transportation costs
- Improved forecasting accuracy
- Ease of access to timely, accurate information for better decision making
- Implementation of data warehouse and business intelligence systems
- Master Data Management
For many small, medium and even larger size companies, these challenges or initiatives remain out of reach or stalled due to budgetary constraints and the lack of in-house resources, skills and experience needed to implement the enabling information systems infrastructure.
eVizibility has been designed to fill a gap in the market and offer a way to implement the enabling infrastructure at a price that is within reach of small and medium sized organizations.
