Dynamics 365 helps build the retail supply chain of the future
A recent Gartner® report found that an effective way to achieve supply chain excellence is to hold distribution center inventory in a channel-agnostic manner that enables more flexible use of fulfillment of online and in-store inventory. Achieving this level of flexibility requires a system with rules-based order orchestration that leverages AI and real-time omnichannel inventory data to proactively address constraints and profitably fulfill orders on time and in full.
Microsoft is at the forefront of these efforts with solutions like Microsoft Dynamics 365 Intelligent Order Management that help retailers reimagine the future of global supply chains and turn order fulfillment into a competitive advantage. Read this blog for insight.
What is Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Insights?
Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Insights is a component of the Microsoft Supply Chain Center, which became available in preview on November 16, 2022. It helps organizations predict risks in their supply chains by utilizing AI-powered insights based on various factors such as news, weather, and geopolitical events. This tool enables businesses to make informed decisions and proactively mitigate risks, ultimately enhancing their supply chain visibility and effectiveness.
How does Dynamics 365 improve order fulfillment?
Dynamics 365 enhances order fulfillment by providing rules-based order orchestration that leverages AI and real-time omnichannel inventory data. This allows retailers to determine the best fulfillment locations for e-commerce and in-store orders, ensuring that customer demands are met efficiently. By holding distribution center inventory in a channel-agnostic manner, retailers can flexibly use inventory to fulfill orders on time and in full, turning order fulfillment into a competitive advantage.
What are the benefits of enhanced supply chain visibility?
Enhanced visibility in the supply chain is crucial for retailers as it allows them to gain real-time insights into inventory across various nodes, from manufacturers to consumers. Dynamics 365 provides near real-time inventory visibility and integrates with multiple third-party systems, enabling businesses to proactively address out-of-stock situations and improve demand and supply planning. This level of visibility helps retailers consistently meet customer expectations and adapt to changing market demands.
