2 What is transparency Why is transparency so difficult How to achieve transparency Benefits of transparency IBM s road to transparency 2

3 What is transparency Concept of supply chain transparency began in 1904 Upton Sinclair spent two months uncovering details about the meatpacking industry, which he portrayed in the classic book The Jungle Food and Drug Act and Meat Inspection Act set stage for early transparency More than a century later; multi national, complex supply chains face massive risks associated with transparency: supplier labor practices, corruption, environmental, quality, etc California Transparency in Supply Chains Act of 2010 Definition of transparency: driving visibility of information across the extended supply chain for the purposes of improved efficiency and compliance 3

4 Importance of Supply Chain Visibility The collective insights from 400 Supply Chain Executives identified five major challenges and Visibility was No.1 IBM CSCO Survey Based on responses of to a very great extent and to a significant extent 4

5 Importance of Supply Chain Visibility Visibility is the keystone of Smarter Supply Chain, driving analytics & collaboration, and enabling resolution of major challenges facing today s supply chains 70%* 55% 60% 56% 43% SUPPLY CHAIN VISIBILITY Supply chain visibility is inhibited by a lack of capabilities and an unwillingness to collaborate. COST CONTAINMENT Fighting integral costs as such might be futile, but being flexible can create cost savings elsewhere. RISK MANAGEMENT Process, data and technology are identified as the roadblocks to good risk management, yet they are the key enablers. INCREASING CUSTOMER DEMANDS Customers are continuing to demand more: right product, right place, right time, right price, sooner. GLOBALIZATION Lead times, delivery and quality are top challenges however, globalization has been a benefit for the leaders. Orchestration (instrumented) Execute seamlessly across internal supply chain processes Share information to optimize joint responses to changing conditions Collaboration & Analytics (intelligent) Analyze and predict the trends and risks that impact your supply chain Determine the optimal response to changing conditions Visibility (interconnected) Expose supply chain information from multiple disparate systems Identify and respond to the events that impact your operations or your trading partners 5 * Percentage of Supply Chain Leaders who report this challenge impacts their supply chains to a significant or very significant extent.

6 Companies need to manage constantly changing conditions & visibility across fragmented and multi-partner enterprises will help Lack of visibility inhibits effective supply / demand synchronization Lack of visibility into supplier inventory leads to stock outs, late/expedited shipments, quality issues, etc. Lack of timely information on forecast, supply, or customer orders results in additional costs such as premium routing or redistribution Source: Line Lack of visibility into changing supplier commits can lead to inaccurate customer commitments or financial projections 6 Sales & Operations Planning Process Lack of visibility and timely information lengthens the cash-tocash cycle, reducing profitability Inability to receive timely, accurate demand signals leads to stock outs, excess/obsolete inventory, higher cost, lost revenue, and poor customer satisfaction.

9 Why is Transparency so difficult Cultural Hurdles Organizational silos are not comfortable sharing information Providing real time visibility across supply chain will affect a corporate management system Data Rare to find a business with enterprise applications that include data structures to support transparency Assessing >50 companies to examine potential for implementation, significant data effort necessary to enable a transparency initiative Less control over external parties Suppliers resellers Business Case Subtle benefits and longer lead times counter to attractive business cases 9

10 Transparency among all stakeholders will require change [shift] in cultural paradigm and renewed team work Together we will have to develop the willingness to share data that will enable the use of information as a collaboration tool and not a power tool We will have to undergo a culture shift to stop spending time to manipulate data before consumption of others 10 We will have to unite and work as ONE team as TSC will necessitate working across traditional process boundaries If you believe in TSC, you will have to believe in this culture [shift] We will need support from our senior leadership team to cascade this message through your entire teams to increase the speed of TSC implementation

12 How to achieve transparency Lay a foundation for success Metric alignment Data integrity Understand the predictive and responsive objectives of transparency Organizational Change Management Secure stakeholders and define objectives Alignment on project mission and requirements Select a platform and tool that aligns with objectives Enterprise wide solutions Point solutions Supply side and demand side Implementation Start small and build on lessons learned from initial deployments Focus on high profile business issues Leverage early wins to start breaking down cultural obstacles 12

15 While challenging to quantify, improved transparency will yield benefits across the entire supply chain Real time order status visibility and exception alerts Credibility and reliable information Increased customer satisfaction levels as they have better access to order status Clients Transparent operations management Issues / risks identification Assess impact to supply chain Next best action initiation Alert / exception driven Single version of truth Global Level KPIs with drill downs Business Partners IBM Mobile App for alerts Improved visibility finished goods inventory Better service level commitments Order status notifications Suppliers Effective supplier collaboration Reduced inventory levels and operations cost Improved sharing information and collaboration Geo spatial & other visualizations IBM Corporation
