Providing Continuous Visibility for Military Consignments
A lack of visibility into the location and status of consignments in military supply chains can lead to defense goods and materiel becoming misdirected, misplaced, or delayed. This lack of visibility of consignments can also cause military units to reorder undelivered materiel to ensure that they do not run out of the supplies needed to support their operations. This results in excess inventory of supplies and materiel in both the initial deployment and sustaining of deployed forces.
The Savi SmartChain® Consignment Management Application (CMA) is a web-based application enabling logisticians to process consignments from the factory to the foxhole in military supply chains. SmartChain CMA also provides real-time visibility of consignments, enabling logisticians to identify precisely where consignments are in the supply chain, and accurately forecast when consignments will arrive at the frontline, so that deployed forces have the necessary equipment and materiel to conduct operations.
