Two thirds of supply chain planning across the globe is still being done using spreadsheets. Such dependency on manual work hinders the sharing of insights across different departments. This, in turn, slows down organizations’ ability and agility to respond to customer needs. Organizations who are looking to reduce the dependency on manual work typically invest in traditional ERP systems. These ERP systems may provide the basic logic behind planning and forecasting. However, the increasingly complex and uncertain business world demands much more than that. Now more than ever, businesses need to think about digital transformation and automation. Solvoyo is the true enabler of digital transformation.
