Benefits of Supply Chain Collaboration
Strategic sourcing teams can collaborate directly with supply chain partners to securely share accurate, up-to-date product information. By gaining a deeper understanding of component attributes—such as approved suppliers, data sheets, where components are used, and any change requests or issue reports—teams can speed up time to market and increase agility. Providing CAD drawings in 2D, 3D, or augmented reality within the proper context further enhances collaboration. Buyers can easily send data, drawings, and revisions to relevant stakeholders in a way that aligns with their specific functions and systems, improving overall efficiency and project coordination.
