Who it's for

Wholesale distributors

Distributors live on supplier service. A short or late delivery becomes a stock-out for their own customers. Buyers place frequent orders with many suppliers, and the receiving dock sees what really arrives.

How Supply Chain Analytics is set up for you

Line-level fill

Accepted against requested quantity, per line and per supplier.

Dock acceptance

Record what passed inspection, with the time it was accepted.

Locked monthly fill rate

Snapshots fix each month's figures for supplier reviews.

Supplier reviews

Quarterly scorecards with fill, timeliness and open quantity.

Distributors live on supplier service. A short or late delivery becomes a stock-out for their own customers. Buyers place frequent orders with many suppliers, and the receiving dock sees what really arrives.

Start with your top suppliers by spend. Load suppliers and open requests, record acceptance at the dock for a month and lock the month's snapshots. Run one supplier review before adding the rest.
