/24-7PressRelease/ - June 12, 2007 - Digital Kanban solutions within the demand-driven supply chain impact profit margins in several ways: by decreasing expense side tangible cost associated with legacy forecast management solutions, increase profit margins through efficiency gains. Increased customer satisfaction may result in additional sales to new as well as existing customers. Automated Kanban can dramatically reduce inventory, increase turns, and eliminate stock outs while enhancing supplier relations and customer satisfaction.
Manual Kanban presents numerous challenges:
• Unreliable due to too many human touch points.
• Unacknowledged responses due to the manual process.
• Cards are controlled manually and susceptible to loss.
• Lack of visibility.
• Lack of timely automated reporting capability.
These issues are resolved by automated or digital kanban.
Software as a Service is a rapid, efficient and cost effective approach to implementing Automated Kanban.
SaaS is a MORE rapid, efficient, and cost-effective approach to Digital Kanban than traditional licensed Kanban software because:
o The software is already installed in a production environment and ready to use.
o Customer does not have to purchase expensive hardware or pay a very large upfront license fee for the application as well as purchasing hardware and prerequisite software and training support personnel on how to maintain/operate the system.
o Pay as you go for what you use, not for what you do not use (user based pricing).
o Implementation time is generally less than a month to train personnel, configure the application and begin using the system.
o Support of the system is accomplished by the experts that developed it allowing users to focus on their core business, not on how to trouble shoot hardware and software.
