Users of CDC Software’s supply chain management software will be able to make faster and better informed decisions around suppliers and logistics, following the release of a business intelligence add-on by the company.
Mats Nordgren, director of product management at CDC, explains that its EPM Warehouse Management now “eliminates guesswork, providing users with insight into business questions through a number of KPIs for receiving, shipping, picking and warehouse utilisation”.
In fact, it’s another customisable visual dashboard and reporting application, allowing organisations, for example to identify which of their suppliers is not performing, in terms of correct delivery times or quantities.
But it’s also intended for internal analysis – for instance around comparative performance of warehouse-floor pickers and warehouses.
“EPM Warehouse Management enables companies to quickly identify opportunities to improve their business processes and to reduce costs,” says Nordgren. “It also helps companies improve the efficiency and effectiveness of their decision making, ultimately positively impacting profitability.”
