Challenges for Wholesale Distributors
In a fast-moving industry, you as a wholesale distributor face an increasingly challenging operational environment. The advancement of technology has unleashed a rise in client expectations. To combat these expectations many wholesale distributors have introduced multiple product lines and increased outsourcing, but these new decisions bring added complexity to your already existing supply chain. The risk is even greater for wholesale distribution companies that are using out-dated software that doesn’t connect all aspects of their business.
Lack of Visibility
Without the ability to clearly see both inbound and outbound product flows clearly, will make day to day decisions such as purchases, stock holding and order fulfillment decisions, difficult.
Manual Processes
Without the right kind of system and automation, details are recorded in spreadsheets. This is cumbersome, prone to errors, can’t store the range and depth of inventory and delivery information.
Silos of Data
Having data in separate systems or spreadsheets makes it difficult to access information for decision making. Modern day businesses require insights and analytics from data across the operation.
Open for Business
modern day businesses are global and work across multiple time zones. Their customers operate 24/7 which means your system must be running 24/7 and be accessed from anywhere using any device.
Inventory Control
The management of inventory is a huge challenge. Tracking orders, stock availability, optimizing storage, moving goods, planning transportation. Need strong planning, insight and reporting.
Price and Margin Control
Slip-ups are costly, especially in a low margin business. Without proper control of costs, prices, discounts, credits, can further reduce margins. Accurate price calculation is difficult.
Inefficient Processes
If you have disparate processes across departments, e.g. between sales, warehousing and accounting, it can complicate your lead-to-cash process, cause errors and result in poor service.
Poor Reporting & Analytics
Need reporting and analytics that can easily access all data related to the business and generate accurate and timely information for decision making, both predictive and performance.
