Supply Chain Management (SCM)
Optimize supply chains, vendor relationships and distribution channels
Supply chain management software provides critical capabilities to manage product flow from components to final product. More specifically, it offers tools to optimize supply chains, vendor relationships and distribution channels – and enables the identification of inefficiencies in these channels. Plus, SCM software integrates data and processes previously in silos, and delivers the ability to measure and react to complexities and disruptions within supply chain and logistics.

About Supply Chain Management Software
Supply chain management software touches many departments within a company because it provides end-to-end visibility and fast access to information on your vendors and customers. Automated workflows can analyze and plan with information from a number of functional areas:
- Product Development
- Sales & Operations Planning
- Procurement
- Production
- Logistics
- Warehouse Management
Automatic workflows, notifications and triggers are key components of any SCM application. Supplier collaboration allows companies to more efficiently manage inventory levels and product flow. Collaboration with customers gives another level of information to analyze. Seasonal product information, trends and fluctuation data can be used to help set expectations.
Top types of supply chain management software typically include Demand Management, Advanced Planning & DRP, and Finite Scheduling tools.

What our customers are saying...
“I would be pretty scared to evaluate vendors without the help of a partner. There is a lot at stake for your company and the vendor. What is really helpful is Ultra can bring an objective way to evaluate these folks, and they know how to keep them honest." Daniel Hanawalt, United Equipment Accessories
“Ultra really was a trusted advisor, especially when interacting with vendors during the selection process. I don’t think there was ever a moment where we didn’t think Ultra had our best interests at heart. There was never a moment where we didn’t trust Ultra was looking out for us.” Tim Plummer, IT Director, Deschutes Brewery
“Ultra led a software selection and implementation of ERP/WMS that resulted in more than $350,000 annual savings from improved processes.” Tom Cesario, VP of U.S. Operations & IT, Radio Flyer
