Microsoft announced the preview launch of Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Insights to help organizations achieve a supply chain of the future—one that is resilient, sustainable, and capable of sensing, predicting, and mitigating disruptions before they occur.
Recent worldwide supply chain disruptions have resulted in economic losses and missed opportunities that stretch into the billions of dollars. Since the beginning of 2019, nearly 70 percent of supply chain leaders have been constantly responding to disruptions. If there’s anything the recent supply chain disruptions have taught business leaders in supply chain management, it’s the importance of having a robust, nimble and transparent system that can withstand radical changes in supply and demand, and that can anticipate and flexibly work around such changes before they play out their widescale domino effects. That’s where Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Insights (preview) comes in.
At Microsoft, the future of global supply chains is being reimagined. Slow digitization of the supply chain is significantly inhibiting organizations from quickly responding to changing customer demand and supply challenges. Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Insights enables organizations to create a digital representation of their physical supply chain and enhance the end-to-end visibility of their entire value chain. It breaks down data siloes by connecting and taking inputs from existing enterprise resource planning (ERP) and supply chain systems across the organization. Businesses can further invite suppliers to securely share data and gain visibility into their first, second, or third-tier suppliers.
The solution will also be available through Microsoft Cloud for Manufacturing.
