Supply Chain Automation as a Service (SCAaaS)
Fully-managed Supply Chain Automation
Supply Chain Automation as a Service (SCAaaS) represents a quantum leap for supply chains by removing all of the traditional barriers normally associated with failed, stalled or never commenced projects
SCAaaS harnesses our fully-managed, on-demand, hosted, supported and integrated Supply Chain Integration service, but includes pre-built SCM applications and the required services to roll applications out.
Pre-built, implemented and integrated
By simply plugging in to our SaaS cloud, without the need for any additional hardware or software, all connected parties across the supply chain have immediate access to:
- Sophisticated business workflow, logic and rules that can supplement their existing applications or be used to build autonomous SCM solutions
- Any-to-any message translation
- Rapid “supply chain object” configuration and development services
- Rebranded applications
- Partner recruitment, testing, live running and ongoing maintenance
- Any-to-any core system integration
- Any-to-any transport protocol
- Fully-managed service, support & hosting
SCAaaS in detail
SCAaaS consists of:
Supply Chain Platform - At the core of the solution is a fully-managed platform that’s exclusively made visible to all or selective participants in a specific supply chain.
The platform is exclusively available through SaaS so the entire supply chain can simply plug in to our cloud without the need to purchase any additional hardware or software.
Via any-to-any messaging and transport protocols, the host, their trading partners and the suppliers to these trading partners have real-time access to this platform.
From a messaging perspective, assuming some of the core computer systems aren’t known to Perceptant then a fixed price and timescale integration service is included. For smaller trading partners or applications that don’t require integration, a web front end can also be customised and implemented.
Supply Chain Business Objects – SCIaaS comes with a library of supply chain business objects that can be implemented to provide immediate rules, logic and functionality. Current objects include for example - freight mode and carrier selection, dynamic supplier selection, vendor managed inventory, inventory collaboration, forecast collaboration, trade promotion management and unique business processes for selective product categories, customers or channels
Supply Chain Object Development Environment – We realise however that no two supply chains are the same and regulatory and competitive advantages have very different effects across retailers, financial services and chemicals and pharmaceuticals for example. Therefore we’ve developed a rapid “supply chain object” development environment that allows us to deploy, customise and if needs be invent new workflow, business logic and functionality for individual customers.
On-boarding trading partners – The true measurement of success for any supply chain solution is the percentage uptake and strength of business benefit felt by its trading partners. Perceptant therefore has a raft of complimentary services quite unlike any you will have seen before. For example, all are fixed price and timescale, 100% integration in to the participant’s computer systems can be guaranteed and our entire company including its software and services can assume your branding and corporate identity.
