Why Partner with BDS?
BDS Supply Chain differentiates from other consulting companies in several ways:
Streamlined Integration
BDS Supply Chain partners with technology partners to provide resources and expertise to implement both demand software and supply software in parallel. Integration is more streamlined requiring fewer client resources. As a result, implementation is faster and more efficient than our competitors.
Focus on Data Governance
BDS Supply Chain provides a master data governance management process so that clients can continue to monitor and support their business as it grows. Other consultants either fix their data structure for the present day or create software static workarounds that will not support the client in the future.
Successful Hand-off for Sustainability
Current consultant companies dedicate most of their resources building and implementing software with little time remaining to provide extended, “real world” training. BDS Supply Chain creates a 50-50% split between implementing the solution and training/handing off process to the client. This approach allows the client to maintain a cohesive Supply Chain Planning Organization after implementation has occurred.
Tailored yet Efficient Approach
All other software companies and supply chain consultants implement “canned” planning process solutions around their software’s designed capabilities. Any process requirements that deviate from the standard functionality of the software requires expensive and time consuming customization. BDS Supply Chain prioritizes a balanced design across all design components – people, process, and technology. The planning software is tailored to the client’s company-wide planning processes. Our approach provides better acceptance, usability, and sustainability.
Strategic Leadership
Most software companies focus on the ability to enter, create, and report information to support the Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP) process. These companies do not have the applied practical experience to gain insight and use that planning information to drive the business. BDS Supply Chain implementation is anchored on a complete, cross-functionally committed S&OP process to interpret key performance indicators, recognize business trends, and develop planning initiatives to execute in the short, intermediate, and long-term horizons.
