Reduction in Expedites
A Fortune 100 automotive manufacturer faced significant challenges managing its multi-tiered global supply chain. The lack of visibility into supplier activities and risks made it difficult to identify roadblocks, address supply threats, and streamline communication. These inefficiencies led to issues meeting customer demands and increased expedite costs.
TADA’s Multi-Tier Collaboration App provided the visibility, collaboration, and planning capabilities needed to manage risks effectively across normal and disruptive supply chain cycles.
Limited Visibility in the Supply Chain:
The company lacked visibility, collaboration, and risk mitigation across its global supply chain network.
Complexity of Automotive Supply Chains:
Spanning multiple tiers, continents, and time zones, the supply chain’s complexity was compounded by shared raw material and component suppliers across the industry.
Impact of Disruptive Cycles:
In a VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, Ambiguous) world, the company struggled to anticipate and mitigate disruptions, leading to high costs and inefficiencies.
To address these challenges, TADA implemented its Multi-Tier Collaboration App, delivering the following capabilities:
Automated Data Collection and Analytics:
Streamlined the collection and analysis of supply chain data across the ecosystem.
Multi-Enterprise Collaboration Across Tiers:
Facilitated real-time collaboration between suppliers at all levels.
Proactive Constraint Management:
