Gain End-to-End Visibility and Organize All Information using Workspace
Workspace provides rapid, high-quality visibility into your supply chain by absorbing and correlating structured and unstructured data. This allows you to see relationships between disparate data without incurring expensive data mapping and transformation costs.
Workspace absorbs structured and unstructured information in its raw state and extracts word sets from these documents. The Workspace engine connects and correlates these documents and their words to create a chain of documents (Flow) and a network of words (Ripple).
Unpredictability and lack of control over global, multi-tiered supply chains lead to low trust in on-time delivery, chronic chaotic conditions, SLA penalties, high costs, low customer satisfaction, and high inventory levels.
The lack of a central source of truth for order fulfillment and the inability of ERP/WMS signals to capture the entire supply chain create visibility issues. Legacy supply chain solutions fail to process unstructured or unmapped structured data, such as supply chain systems output, partner data, PDFs, ad-hoc emails, attachments, and ongoing chat group discussions, missing critical insights.
High costs of data lakes due to transformation efforts and failure of "one-off" internal projects. Mapping unstructured documents and unmapped structured data to a unified data model is a common obstacle.
Traditional supply chain tools focus narrowly on quantitative metrics like inventory but fail to qualitatively explain the behavioral aspects of the supply chain process, such as trust, credibility, predictability, or crisis management.
Workspace imports all curated supply chain information in its original state, without transforming it, to create a single, accurate version of the truth in a time-linear database. This generates an end-to-end view of the supply chain, incorporating data from multiple systems, partners, and tiers.
Organize the supply chain information using the Workspace, Space, and Folder hierarchy, allowing easy sharing and searching by all parties. This enables faster issue investigation, collaboration, and resolution.
Correlate and find connected documents and information without expensive data transformation
Connect every incoming document, email, or system signal to the active supply chain flow based on related keywords. This creates a singular view of all related supply chain activity.
Deliver the perfect order with the right price, quantity, timing, location, and cost, ensuring a superior customer experience.
Ensure perfect supply to the factory with the right price, quantity, timing, location, and cost, driving superior vendor performance, lower lead times, and lower inventory capital.
Achieve the highest levels of customer satisfaction in the drop-ship supply chain, despite vendor, inventory, logistics, and customer experience complexities.
Creating a sequence of supply chain documents in Workspace involves capturing and organizing time-ordered data from various sources. Workspace centralizes this information, integrating both structured and unstructured data, to provide an end-to-end view of supply chain activities. This process enables real-time visibility and predictive insights.
Workspace can track a variety of signals, including:
- Order statuses
- Shipment updates
- Inventory levels
- Vendor communications
- Production milestones
- Delivery confirmations
- Emails
- PDF documents
Workspace can generate exceptions such as:
- Anomalies
- Chronic conditions
- Crises
- Opportunities
- Expected outcomes
These exceptions are detected in real-time, allowing for immediate action to mitigate issues and optimize performance.
Yes, Workspace integrates seamlessly with email signals and attachments. It effectively handles both structured and unstructured data, unlike traditional systems.
Yes, Workspace integrates seamlessly with existing ERP systems, ensuring a smooth transition and immediate benefits. It supports all data formats, minimizing disruption and maximizing efficiency.
Workspace integrates unstructured data, such as emails, PDFs, and chat messages, by processing and organizing them alongside structured data within the system. This unified platform allows for real-time analysis and predictive insights, creating a dynamic and efficient supply chain. The Flow engine assigns trust scores, generates real-time alerts, and provides actionable insights based on this integrated data.
