The Importance of Good Information
Good information is one of the most vital components of an effective supply chain — and the most critical to improving supply chain performance. While many organizations measure their performance using their own internally focused data, companies that are critical links in an extended supply chain gauge performance in terms of their shared effectiveness. As a result, effective supply chains need information and intelligence that span multiple organizations. And because supply chain conditions are continuously evolving, companies also need more than an archive of historical data. They need immediate insight into current conditions and emerging trends. The companies who are most effective at translating information into actionable intelligence can gain a competitive advantage by agreeing on priorities, allocating effort and resources more efficiently, and synchronizing activities to respond to fluctuations in customer demand.
