Supply Chain Optimization

Supply chain optimization is the process of using data to make strategic adjustments to the storage, shipping, and distribution of products to save time, money, and resources.

What Is Supply Chain Optimization?

Supply chain optimization relies on high-quality data. Without the right insights, a brand won't be able to make the informed decisions that can refine and maximize the efficiency of their supply chain.

But with the right analytics, brand teams can spot:

Communication errors leading to product movement errors or unnecessarily slow processes;
Customer demand, including forecasted demand, to better serve their clients and avoid inventory stockouts; and
Opportunities for reducing shipping times, tracking items more effectively, and reducing materials waste.

To collect and analyze the data needed for optimization, many brands use supply chain management or machine-learning (ML) tools that give teams greater visibility into their operations. Each of these supply chain optimization opportunities affords brands a chance to boost their bottom line and get products into stores and consumers' hands more quickly. Refining the backend processes means enhancing the front-end customer engagement and business success.
