SRM can generally be broken down into two key segments: transactional and analytical SRM. This brief analyses how SRM can support manufacturers.
Scope of this title: - Looks at supplier relationship management software and how it supports manufacturing strategies - Covers manufacturing from a top-level, global viewpoint, and forecasts the revenue opportunity within 16 sub-verticals
Highlights of this title: - Transactional SRM is focused on the automation of relatively high volume, low variation processes within key areas such as procurement and contract management. Because of the nature of these interactions, automation provides a significant reduction in the rate of error along with increased gains from data structure commonality and faster throughput
