Supply chain managers spend hours daily manually tracking supplier performance and identifying at-risk components — typically discovering disruptions only after they've already impacted production schedules and triggered customer escalations.
Supply chain data is fragmented across ERP systems, supplier emails, spreadsheets, and logistics portals. Analysts manually reconcile from 5–15 sources to produce weekly reports that are already outdated by Monday morning. There is no consolidated real-time view, no automated threshold monitoring, and no predictive signal layer.
