When the question “Where is the product now?” circulates in a company or important information from the supply chain is lost in emails and various Excel lists so that internal processes can no longer be superimposed, then a company should consider introducing a SCM system. But that won’t happen overnight. Even with simple installations and clearly defined processes, this takes several months. And a few homework tasks have to be done before the start. No matter whether fashion manufacturer, electronics dealer or automotive supplier, the following 5 questions should generally be clarified before the project starts:<\/p>\n
