SAP Joins the Movement to Control Towers
SAP's recent conference - SAPinsider - was held recently in Las Vegas. That isn't really much news in itself. But one of the key revelations from the conference was its announcement that the company will be releasing something we at ec-bp.com have been talking about for quite a while... a Supply Chain Control Tower. A quick search on ec-bp.com for Supply Chain Control Tower (SCCT) shows more than 20 entries that provide a fairly complete description and explanation of just what SCCTs are, should be, need in order to be successful.
Our own Ken Kinlock has devoted considerable time and expertise to providing this information, and at this point the resources he has compiled may comprise the most comprehensive description of SCCT function and operation available. Whether it is indeed the largest compilation, it is at least a great place to start your exploration. Another resource is Forbes' article about the SAP announcement.
It's great to see SAP producing an actual product that delivers on the SCCT concept and presents another step toward complete supply chain visibility - a key component to delivering on the ultimate promise of an efficient supply chain.
