The right mix of total supply chain cost involves multiple trade offs. Oii models all the potential set-ups and their underlying cost profiles to determine the optimal. It does this using a concept called SMSpace™ a multi dimensional virtual hologram where all potential future supply chains for a particular network are built, costed and compared.
By making supply chain costs transparent it enables greater understanding of how the planning set up drives costs and ensures that the supply chain is configured to maximise profitability and service.
