SCM Software: Facilitating Tools
Facilitating systems and applications provide critical links
between supply chain processes, the organization, and external
stakeholders. Collectively, they create a holistic view of the supply
chain.
Enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems
• Incorporate internal and external systems into a single
unified solution that spans the enterprise.

Supplier relationship management (SRM)


• A controlled and systematic approach to managing an
organization’s sourcing activities for goods and services.

Customer relationship management (CRM)


• Focuses on practices, strategies & technologies used to
manage and analyze customer interactions & data
throughout relationship lifecycle
Automatic identification (auto-ID) & data capture
technologies
• Recognize objects, collect relevant information, and feed the
data directly into the SCIS.

Summary
 To produce actionable knowledge, supply chain information
must be high quality, readily flow between organizations,
and support a variety of decision types.
 A well-designed SCIS links people, processes, and
technology in a manner that provides actionable
information and enhances decision making.
 four general categories of supply chain software are: (1)
planning tools for forecasting and related activities, (2)
execution systems for management of day-to-day
processes, (3) event management tools to monitor supply
chain flows, and (4) business intelligence applications used
to analyze performance.
 To maximize SCIS investment success, managers must
effectively assess the SCM requirements, understand
software options, and address the technical issues.
