EXTON, PA — (Marketwired) — 12/03/13 — the leading (SCON) provider for the process industries, says a SCON with a “Come As You Are” approach to integration means that companies don-t have to change their internal processes or make costly technology investments in order to reap the advantages of a collaborative commerce network. enable thousands of individual trading partners, and their respective enterprises, to seamlessly and efficiently conduct commerce at a scale significant enough to create real cost advantages while also improving their ability to delight their individual customers.
“Process industry companies have invested heavily in internal process standardization and company-wide ERP systems. The internal efficiency of these -inside-out- investments have driven savings through standardization and centralization, while enabling increased control over internal operations,” said Rich Katz, Chief Technology Officer at Elemica. “However, these companies are still leaving money on the table. Inside-out strategies stumble when companies try to extend them outside their own four walls.”
A recipe for unmet expectations occurs when businesses attempt to force trading partners to collectively adopt a single process or technology standard. Individual companies each have their own processes and enterprise requirements. While internal needs can be forced through by corporate mandate, external supply chain partners are not necessarily accepting of their demands. A Supply Chain Operating Network truly integrates the extended, varied, distributed, and complex needs of thousands of individual trading partners and their respective enterprises, without requiring any of them to change the way they do business.
“A -Come As You Are- approach is key to unlocking -outside-in- supply chain performance,” adds Rich Katz. “When companies are able to automate and enable business processes across a critical mass of their trading partners, regardless of their individual requirements, business is transformed.”
