Transform Sourcing & Supplier Management into a Strategic Advantage
Discover How Close Collaboration Between Engineering and Sourcing Teams Drives Innovation
Maximizing Strategic Sourcing: The Crucial Link Between Engineering and Procurement
In an era dominated by rapid technological advancements and shifting market demands, supply chain management and engineering collaboration have never been more critical. Collaboration is essential for organizations to stay at the forefront of innovation, ensuring that products are designed precisely, viable, sustainable, and efficiently delivered to the market.
Supply chain management and engineering collaboration are the backbone of operational excellence. Fostering close collaboration between engineering and supply chain operations teams has many advantages. Engineers possess deep expertise regarding product functionality, yet they may lack insights into costs or manufacturing feasibility. In contrast, Supply Chain Management teams excel in understanding component selection and sourcing strategies but may not grasp consumer behavior and preferences. Close collaboration facilitates seamless innovation, enhances operational efficiency and drives sustainable growth.
The 3DEXPRIENCE platform provides a unified environment to elevate sourcing and supplier management from transactional purchasing tasks to strategic business initiatives. Through enabling seamless data integration, cross-functional alignment, and an intelligent network approach, the platform equips manufacturers with a competitive advantage.
