Supply Chain Collaboration Solutions

Thanks to globalisation and increased outsourcing strategies, firms no longer design, build, manufacture and support products entirely themselves. Instead, an increasing percentage of product value creation is executed outside of the company's virtual four walls thus driving greater dependency on worldwide, multi-tier supply chains comprised of partners of all shapes and sizes. To optimise supply chain performance, organisations must be able to extend critical business processes, lean practices and real-time information to the partner community. Do organisations have the right supply chain collaboration infrastructure in place to successfully handle this new way of doing business? Today, the answer almost always is no.

Applied offers a range of supply chain collaboration solutions and services designed to help organisations better management the processes of collaboration across their supply chain environments but specifically in three key areas:

• Product Lifecycle Management
• Product Design and Development Cost Management
• Product Intellectual Property Management and Security
• Enterprise information search and content management
