From a supply chain planning perspective, few industries are as challenging as Consumer Electronics. Consumer Electronics products have very short life cycles, must be delivered to market on-time or ahead-of-schedule to make money, are subject to cut-throat pricing and promotions, and must have a “cool” factor. While supply chain planning cannot help with the cool factor, it plays a big part in making sure manufacturers can get these products to the right place in the right quantities while the products are still cool. Oracle's Value Chain Planning applications have all of the capabilities necessary to help Consumer Electronics manufacturers manage and shape demand, streamline distribution, and deliver product at the lowest total landed cost to ensure that these “cool” products are also profitable.
