COMMON CLOUD CHAIN

  • From interrelated to interconnected. From interrupted to seamless. From erratic to coordinated. From enterprise-focused to network-focused. The common cloud chain enables the next level of collaboration in multiparty trade and commerce with end-to-end supply chain visibility along with sales and staff enablement.

WHAT IS COMMON CLOUD CHAIN?

Common Cloud Chain (aka Hyper-Chain) is a digital transformation approach for multiparty value chain automation. It is an Hyper Integrated Digital Ecosystem (HIDE).

  • Common: harmonized and mutualized data points with shared seamless processes and standardized workflows for interoperability
  • Cloud: multi-tenant shared hosting and anytime anywhere access
  • Chain: multi-nodal mapping of many-to-many business relationships with open inclusion


COMMON CLOUD CHAIN UNLOCKS SEVERAL OPPORTUNITIES

  • Common cloud chain provides opportunities for multiparty collaboration along the business value chain for a range of benefits like much lower inventories through real-time exchange of reliable planning data, slashed lead times thanks to instant triggers across the chain, while providing an early-warning system and the ability to react fast to disruptions anywhere; and many more.
  • The common cloud chain platform improves buy and sell experiences within and between businesses for trade partners, sales force, purchasers, customers, distributors and business leaders with innovative digital applications based on advanced best-practices and ingenious insights.

COMMON CLOUD CHAIN DELIVERS A BROAD RANGE OF BENEFITS

  • Like much lower inventories through real-time exchange of reliable planning data, slashed lead times thanks to instant triggers across the chain, while providing an early-warning system and the ability to react fast to disruptions anywhere.
  • Recurring upside also includes cross-company consensus, improved supply chain, sales enablement with 2x/3x active selling time, streamlined international distribution, coordinated vendor networks, lower expiry and obsolescence costs, traceability for anti-counterfeiting and recalls, staff-n-business productivity, paperless efficiency, transactional hygiene and alignment, reduced administrative costs; and many more.


ORCHESTRATE MULTIPARTY NETWORKS TO OPERATE END-TO-END AS ONE INTELLIGENT BUSINESS

  • Digital age is about experience and excellence – so is the focus of our services. The value chain beyond company boundaries offers new frontiers of untapped business value. Multiparty value chain automation extends the power of enterprise-focused legacy IT-systems to a network-focus common cloud chain. Success now depends on leveraging capabilities of the overall network. Every business needs to actively shape and regulate the working of its business-ecosystem to greatly improve performance.

GO SEAMLESS TO AVOID DOWNSIDES OF DISJOINTED CHAINS

  • Inefficiencies owing to interruptions and inconsistencies amongst trade partners are the cause of hidden costs, waste and frustrations. Manual interfaces, disjointed processes and broken supply chains are inherently inefficient - resulting in non-value-add activities, duplication, delays and disputes. Similarly data silos add recurring hidden costs for repeated collection, processing and reprocessing of information – which despite all efforts and costs remains unreliable due to gaps, lags and lapses. Moreover, in the hyper-competitive business landscape, with diluted product and price differentiation, customer experience is, both, the new advantage and the new imperative.


MULTIPLIER ROI IS ACHIEVED WITH THE COMMON CLOUD CHAIN

  • Live and continuous collaboration on a shared and seamless platform transforms data (from reported to real time), discipline (from misalignment to interoperability) and decisions (from instinctive to data-driven). Think, link and sync end-to-end for business maximization with HX.
 
 

Business Imperatives in the Digital Era

FORTIFIED IT-SYSTEMS ARE NO LONGER SUFFICIENT

  • Augmenting capabilities of standalone enterprise systems in an interconnected digital world. Extend beyond your ERP - even beyond multi-enterprise platforms to a multiparty platform for your entire business community.

IT IN DIGITAL AGE EXTENDS BEYOND THE ENTERPRISE :: VALUE CHAIN AUTOMATION

  • Value chain extends beyond the enterprise boundaries, so does the scope of processes and technology.

IT IN DIGITAL AGE EXTENDS BEYOND INFORMATION :: END-TO-END JOURNEY

  • It is about experience and excellence. It is not just about enabling data and its accuracy, it is about delivering the journey as a whole. Now, it anchors the entire competitive advantage for the business.


POWER THE VALUE CHAIN WITH DOUBLE WINGS :: BOTH INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL

  • Augment the traditional enterprise systems to align with business partners and customers in an end-to-end value chain to holistically manage your supply chain, sales and service field staff and more.

THE DIGITAL EVOLUTION TO MULTIPARTY EXCHANGE

  • From manual bookkeeping to accounting systems to cross-functional ERP to cross-company multiparty exchange, our common cloud chain platform adds capabilities that extend your legacy enterprise systems to provide an end-to-end multiparty value chain automation.

Core Anchors of the Common Cloud Chain

Inevitable Evolution to the Common Cloud Chain

THE PREMISE FOR EVOLUTION TO COMMON CLOUD CHAIN


In the information age, over decades, from mere bookkeeping systems to advanced ERP systems, processes and technology have been iteratively redefined to squeeze every drop of efficiency within the enterprise. Despite that the most efficient silos are not the winners, as ad-hoc external interfaces and manual handoffs are inherently wasteful and unreliable. Standalone enterprise efficiency needs to be complemented with relative multiparty efficiencies to leave no weak-links in the chain. Likewise, data is broken into siloes behind opaque enterprise boundaries. Reluctant and delayed sharing of data renders decision-making ineffective.


Evidently, it is important to take an outside-in view and execute strategies that actively shape and regulate the end-to-end value chain to consistently uphold customer experience and business excellence at the desired level. With our B2B services and solutions, we help clients overcome these challenges.
