The ability to make intelligent supply chain business decisions is contingent on having high-quality data on your supply network. High-quality data has the following characteristics:
- Reliable.
- Accurate.
- Relevant.
- Understandable.
- Accessible.
Most businesses recognize the importance of having reliable, accurate and relevant data. However, they often fail to provide such data to their teams in an accessible and understandable manner. This is usually because the data gets stored in cumbersome spreadsheets or fragmented legacy systems containing unstructured data that make it difficult and time-consuming to evaluate. Business performance is negatively impacted as a result, since it takes too long to act upon this hard-to-digest data, and in the supply chain world where things move very quickly, any delay in decision making can prove damaging for business.
That’s why at Gravity Supply Chain, we’ve spent considerable time developing analytics that makes data easy to understand and act upon, increasing the speed of your decision making. One example is our Volumetrics Tile, which presents data on shipped volumes in the most intuitive and visually appealing manner possible.
