This implies that certain key performance indicators (KPIs) and standards that drive supply chain performance are now organizational metrics and standards or a new set of metrics and standards need to be defined and centralized. The entire organization must work towards achieving the same overall performance goals and creating a responsive supply chain that maximizes revenue and profits.

For this you need close alignment across many different teams so you can dissolves silos and fosters greater internal visibility as well as collaboration across your entire supply chain.

UMS helps clients create the responsive supply chains that continually meet demand at the point of consumption with the least possible inventory. We ratify production, warehousing, fulfillment, planning and replenishment operations to anticipate and respond to operational, geopolitical, social and environmental uncertainties that threaten production and delivery of products. We help clients achieve real-time visibility into SKU performance at each point of sale so that just the right amount of product is available exactly when and where it is needed.

Our clients reduce both excess inventory and stockouts; increase inventory turns; reduce warehousing capacity, stocking and restocking fees; and synchronize their supply chains so they can better anticipate and respond directly to end-user consumption.
