This provides companies with valuable information not only about their own inventories, but alsostrengthens their supplier relationshipsso that they are always up-to-date regarding any changes in their supply chain. Because this is done digitally, automatically and revision-proofed, this “supply chain” is far more resilient than traditional paper-based corporate communications. Additionally itlowers operational costs and boosts profits. And through the digital Omnizon SupplierPortal, better and faster communication management helps to counteract supply bottlenecks.On July 12, 2022, the “Institut für Arbeitsmarkt und Berufsforschung” (IAB) published a study on the extent to which interruptions or disruptions in the ability to supply industrial primary products or materials affected production in Germany. However, the influences of the Ukraine war were not taken into account because the study only covered the calendar year 2021. Nevertheless, 70 percent of all companies surveyed reported impairments to their supply chain in 2021. Interestingly, the size of a company seems to play an important role. If the companies had more than 250 employees, 80 percent of them were affected more frequently by delivery failures. The reason for this is presumably because they had a large supplier network of direct and indirect suppliers, which exacerbated the level of risk. The failure rate for smaller companies was lower at 67 percent. It can be assumed here that most smaller organisations had either very few suppliers or only one supplier who had difficulties fulfilling its ordersORDERS (Pedido): El mensaje ORDERS se utiliza para transmitir una solicitud de bienes o servicios de un comprador a un vendedor. Incluye información sobre los artículos solicitados, cantidades, precios, detalles de entrega y otros términos y condiciones relevantes. El mensaje ORDERS sirve como documento oficial para iniciar el proceso de compra..But how can supply bottlenecks be countered? “First of all, it is important to understand the extent to which current inventories are sufficient to maintain production. To allow this calculation you should create the digital conditions whereby the current stock level can always be viewed,” explains Tatjana Pinhak, Regional Director DACH at OMNIZON Networks. Once you have achieved this, you can focus on the management of your suppliers.
