Arc.net - “Empowering Supply Chain visibility in real-time”
Arc.net is a secure platform that utilizes a distributed node network to transmit critical real-time manufacturing data from the factories to brands, providing a holistic view of supply chain activities to allow for strategic decision-making.
First, you would obtain a real-time view of all supplier tiers to strategically source and purchase inputs directly from factories. Secondly, you would leverage accurate, real-time data on manufacturing activities to optimize supply chain planning in both the short and long term. Next, you would utilize in-built machine learning capabilities to forecast supply and demand while automating sourcing decisions. Lastly, you would react quickly to changing events to minimize disruption and ensure rapid production and delivery lead-times.
