Operational Data

Operational data focuses on the processes and activities within the supply chain. It reflects the internal workings of the organization.

• Shipping and Logistics: Data on shipment tracking, delivery routes, and timelines.

Uses in Supply Chain Management:

• Resource Optimization: Ensure that production and inventory are aligned with demand.
• Cost Reduction: Minimize delays and inefficiencies in logistics operations.
• Real-Time Monitoring: Use dashboards for visibility into current operations.
