Supply chain collaboration
Coordinate processes, manage information and drive early supplier involvement across all stages of the product lifecycle in a cohesive supply chain management (SCM) environment.
Accelerate supply chain collaboration
Streamline the design-to-launch process and proactively plan for issues to mitigate the impact of supply chain disruptions on product launches, market share and revenue. Collaborating with teams and involving suppliers and partners early helps identify and address problems. By tackling these challenges, you ensure the timely delivery of innovative products to market.
Reimagine supply chain management
Optimize transport and reduce empty runs and consolidate data to increase efficiency and sustainability by generating smart loads that combine inbound and outbound runs.
Increased cargo space
The use of cargo space was improved by 18% by optimizing routes, combining less-than truckload freight and consolidating shipments. (Source: REICHHART Logistik)
Reduced costs
Transport costs fell by 13% by calculating cargo space and precisely analyzing associated costs. (Sources: REICHHART Logistik)
Reduced emmissions
Reduced emissions by 22% by optimizing routes and making better use of vehicle capabilities to increase efficiency and sustainability. (Sources: REICHHART Logistik)

Frequently asked questions
Supply chain collaboration, or also known as supply chain management (SCM), involves planning, coordinating and optimizing the flow of goods, services, information and finances from origin to consumption. It integrates key processes like procurement, production, inventory, logistics and distribution to enhance efficiency, reduce costs and meet customer demands. SCM relies on collaboration, technology and continuous improvement to ensure smooth operations and provide a competitive advantage.
With supply chain management software (SCM), manufacturers can streamline operations, reduce costs and enhance their competitiveness. By enabling a cohesive supply chain management environment, the software optimizes processes, improves visibility and fosters collaboration across the supply chain network.
Supply chain management (SCM) is designed for planning and optimizing supply
chain processes. It is state-of-the-art IT platform which allows customers to harness the power of data to analyze, simulate, and optimize the complexity of their logistics networks using a Supply Chain Digital Twin approach.
For logistics to run smoothly, all involved parties must be able to communicate and share information seamlessly. This is often achieved by deploying stand-alone solutions, each designed to meet a specific set of requirements. With integration between SCM and Siemens digital logistic solutions you can replace stand-alone solutions with a centralized, cloud-based collaboration platform.
With supply chain management software (SCM), you can reduce cycle times by optimizing processes such as planning, inventory management, real-time data analysis, automation, collaboration and predictive analytics. By improving efficiency and visibility throughout the supply chain, SCM software enables faster decision making, minimizes idle time and delays and enhances overall supply chain performance.
