Supply chain analytics is a system that facilitates the execution of products and services from supplier to customer. Supply chain systems incorporate several components such as information, organizations, people, activities and resources to change raw materials into finished goods. The supply hierarchy of manufactures, suppliers, retailers, wholesalers and customers is followed in supply chain analytics (SCA). Supply chain analytics has turned out to be a necessity for organizations in order to efficiently penetrate into the market. Supply chain analytics stresses on releasing the cash by enhancing forecast accuracy, support network reconfiguration, minimizing material wastage, optimize service levels, reducing inventory etc. Supply chain analytics offers services across industries such as defense, automotive, manufacturing, electronics and high tech, aerospace, healthcare, life sciences, retail among others and consumer packaged goods. The global Supply Chain Analytics Market is estimated to grow with a 16.46% CAGR during 2016-2023. Factors driving supply chain analytics market includes:
- High demand of inventory management
- Low cost for sourcing and logistics
- High awareness towards a “SMARTER” supply chain
- High improvement in logistics processes
- Flexible collaborative planning and decision making across functions
Factors such as lack of data visibility in real-time in the national or international business; no particular way to modernize processes within planning and execution; no flexibility within the network and imbalance in product line are all hindering the growth of supply chain analytics market. But, companies are coming up with innovative solutions, services, and cloud based applications to bring the necessary flow required in the supply chain processes. One of the major market players, Sage Clarity launched a host of applications to provide assistance for immediate management of inventory, in development with its success of supply chain solutions in the beverages and food industry. The new applications enables the employees to gain meaningful insights, not just regarding the inventory; but also, customer deliveries, profitability, cost management, and other aspects involved in the supply chain management.
Large quantity of data is produced and processed each day in various industries and it is important to handle such large quantity of data; and also, to change it into a valuable information. Hence, increasing business data and the requirement of effective database management tools across various industries around the globe play a significant role in driving the supply chain analytics market. Although, there are many factors restraining the market such as concerns related to data security, due to which many organizations hesitate to use the supply chain analytics concept. This hesitation in the adoption of the SCA technique is a big restraint for the market. Also, the complexities in the process of data handling and integration with existing ERP/SCM must be handled, since these are big challenges of this field.
