Advantages

Supplier knows his own items better than a retailer who deals with thousands of different ones and has access to some relevant information only: thanks to neXt-Reorder the supplier can access consumption data and retailer stock levels so that he will be able to compute a provisioning based on real consumptions.

  • Sales growth thanks to a higher products availability
  • Supply / delivery lead time reduction
  • Costs reduction (due to stocks reduction and chance to produce on demand)
  • Stock-out risk reduction (promotions on point of sale, production and logistic problems, ….)
  • Forecasts and provisioning optimization thanks to partners planning sharing
  • Highly efficient data exchange management among supply chain partners

neXt-Reorder

The collaborative tool for periodic provisioning

In the nowadays complex and competitive environment the supply chain requires updated tools allowing companies optimizing production and goods distribution process.

 

 

Such solutions are base on forecasting mathematics algorithms allowing  the defined goals fulfilment (even if apparently in contrast) constantly interacting with the IT systems and under the manager’s in charge strong governance:

  • Maximum customer satisfaction
  • Stock reduction
  • Zero stock-outs 

From this point of view EDI and Web-EDI allowed developing new processes in order to increase the administrative and IT collaboration and they are the starting point for C.R.P. (Continuous Replenishment Process) projects implementation. This process delegates supplier (who knows the whole process, future supplies availability included) managing the product provisioning for retailers.

How the CRP works

CRP is based on stock level, shipping, sales and stock-outs constant and daily news exchange, working at different level (point of sale or warehouses) based on company organization.
Starting from this information, neXt-Reorder computes a consumption forecast and elaborates the real needs taking into consideration the logistic constrains defined in the agreement.
This computation final result is a provisioning proposal sent from supplier to the customer who validates it and sends the confirmation back engaging the supplier on delivery terms.

The solution is multi-company and  supports management of users / user groups access and permission to functionalities.

 


In order to guarantee the standards respect and to reduce the possible development needs, neXt-Reorder gives user maximum freedom level together with the highest possible customization. It is therefore possible in many cases to customize the procedure according to user’s requirements.
