Supply Chain Management
Efficient supply chain management relies on well-maintained core master data for procure-to-pay processes, (including Materials, Services, Vendors, Customers), inventory verification, and optimization. These elements contribute to generating non-repetitive, relevant, and precise transactional data. When both the master and transactional data are effectively managed, they foster a robust supply chain management system, particularly in the maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) domain.
