Problem
•
•
APS provides a powerful and
plentiful toolbox enhancing
supply chain management,
but relatively few companies
have installed the software.
Few APS users take full
advantage of APS to
integrate intra- and interfirm
processes in the supply
chain, especially regarding
long- and mid-term planning
levels.
