Answering Supply Chain Needs:
Through the
supervision and management of all distribution and warehouse supply-chain
operations, ibs Central covers to the
Distribution Center (DC) business needs (warehouse and platform) in
terms of reducing operational costs and ensuring an overall view of
stores' activities.
Due to the lack of integrated solutions,
Distribution Center teams nowadays waste a lot of time because they are unable
to access (in real time) the operational store and corporate information they
need.
With ibs Central, DC teams
have real-time access to accurate and up-to-date information, and
thus can efficiently solve operational and functional problems.
As
supply chain networks have become more complex, the need for greater and
improved supply chain technology solutions has become critical.
As ibs
Central is directly linked to ibs Store, Distribution Centers inherit stores'
orders and commitments in real-time for automatic consolidation, thus
significantly reducing delays and errors. Our Solution enhances
cooperation between DC's, Stores and corporate teams, ensuring the same
information flows.
