Designed with the goal of fostering multi-site and multi-user real-time planning, the new n.SKEP collaborative range from DynaSys consists of:

• n.SKEP Demand Planning: collaborative solution for the monitoring of demand forecasting, which is the start point of distribution and production. Sales forecasts are generated based on corporate historical data, taking into account all events (marketing, promotions, cannibalism, etc.)
• n.SKEP Distribution Planning: central multi-site distribution planning solution (DRP) which coordinates the product flows through the whole logistic network. Balancing the flows is achieved by simulation and/or cost optimisation.
• n.SKEP Production Planning: solution for plant planning, for programming the required production capacities and for forecasting stock projection (at the MPS and SOP levels).
• n.SKEP Scheduling: programming solution for production lines allowing to optimize lead times and used capacity on the most detailed level.
• n.SKEP Procurement Planning: solution which optimizes the critical materials Master Procurement Plan and the calculation of the raw material order and delivery plan.

‘The supply chain is a succession of manufacturing and sales operations that occur in an increasingly broad context beginning with raw materials procurement and ending with the sale of a product to the final consumer, through an often complex network that necessitates specialists at each level of the process,’ comments Ariel Weil, General Manager Assistant of DynaSys.

‘Numerous companies participate in a similar chain whether it is for a product, a product range or an economic sector, and intervene at different stages, explains Ariel Weil . In one way or another they all demonstrate the same need: to gain reactivity and efficiency. That for we have developed a suite of collaborative solutions that are powerful, user-friendly, to be parameterized and integrated with the various existing IT Systems (SAP certification, etc.). This allows companies to respond to their specific problematics and offer their users the ability to share and validate all information in an optimal and secure manner.’

‘The n.SKEP Collaborative e-business portal permits Supply Chain Managers to monitor their supply chain very easily, to share their data immediately, to alert in case of changes carried out by anyone and to synchronize their information. This tool permits them to react to any event, anytime and anywhere’, adds Ariel Weil.

‘We also offer companies the possibility of measuring their Supply Chain performances. With the n.SKEP Performance Scoring solution, the Key Performance Indicators are interactively engineered to be examined and shared by the major players of the company, via the internet or intranet.’

‘Our teams have consecrated a lot of time and energy to the development and enhancement of our n.SKEP collaborative solution range, testifies Ariel Weil. Our clients are searching for innovative, powerful, flexible and ergonomic solutions that will lead them to a better control of their supply chain with increasingly large volumes. Today, we have at our disposal all of the technological and human resources needed to meet their expectations.’

‘This new range is available in its “Worksgroup” version, which is geared toward Middle Market Supply Chain projects, as well as in the “Enterprise” version, which is designed for global Supply Chain projects, allowing access for more than one hundred collaborative users spread over the five continents.’ concludes Ariel Weil.
