Benefits of a Mobile Supply Chain
As smart devices with great processing capabilities become more and more common, accessing real-time supply chain data through a mobile ERP platform is a profitable venture. Even as remote working has become the norm, a mobile ERP makes sure that business operations don't come to a standstill due to a lack of server data access. Again, access control can be programmed into the ERP system so managers and sales staff can work on enterprise data, implement decisions and updates as per access rights through authorized channels. Let's enumerate a few benefits of a Mobile ERP for supply chain management.

With a real-time view of data, statistics, and production levels, the implementation of decisions takes place with transparency. As Oodles offers development for well-integrated ERP systems, data integrity is maintained throughout the platform. Update in one application or module is reflected across the whole platform. Also, due to the transparency of data access and view, areas of concern can be easily identified and modified without any error. Also, as a mobile ERP automates a number of operations, the chances of human error in logistics, sales, and customer requests are minimized.
Real-time Data Exchange
Mobile ERP offers managers a hawk-eye view of their workforce as well as warehouse operations, consignments, and qued tasks. Technologies like IoT and RFID track the movement of consignments through their journey from production to warehouses to end clients. As IoT devices are integrated with the ERP system of the enterprise, tracking data is readily available through a dashboard. It eliminates the need for transferring data through email or telephonic mediums, thus accelerating the implementation of decisions in the supply chain.
Increased Efficiency
As new technologies, consumer behaviors, and lean production models take over the supply chain market, the ability to break out of traditional systems and to adapt is of the essence. A mobile supply chain aids enterprises in building a network that can be managed remotely as it consists of well-placed technological tools and software. It not only simplifies resource allocation but creates space for innovation and growth. Its flexibility makes it easier to use and implement, thus making the workforce as well as the supply network efficient.
Inventory Tracking
Inventory and Logistics are the backbone of a supply chain. Maintaining accurate inventory levels ensures the smooth flow of commodities over a supply network. As a mobile ERP enhances visibility into inventory levels, it can be programmed to notify at specific levels as well as report consumption patterns through analytics tools. With a detailed assessment of the peaks and lows of sales cycles, mobile ERPs can be used to implement replenishment strategies that contain cost and drive returns.
Business Intelligence (BI)
A mobile ERP can be integrated with business intelligence applications to deliver a comprehensive data analysis and reporting from budget, sales and inventory to quality control and productivity analysis. It serves the supply chain in decision making by helping them set up applicable KPIs key to supply chain operations. It makes sure businesses have centralized management of resources and data for accurate insights and identification of opportunities as well as areas of concern.
