What IT initiatives will help high-tech manufacturers establish a stronger competitive position when the economy rebounds and high-tech manufacturing recovers?
Electronics OEMs, contract manufacturers and component suppliers need to rethink how they manage their supply chains. High-tech leaders are moving quickly to implement supply chain solutions that will reduce direct material costs, improve inventory management, shorten cycle times, and enhance customer responsiveness. Supplier Relationship Management (SRM) is an emerging software category that is enabling high-tech manufacturers to work collaboratively with suppliers to rapidly improve the efficiency of their supply chain operations. SRM solutions provide immediate value and enable high-tech companies to compete in a new dimension.
