Partnership for global supply chain network solutions
13th September 2024
Nulogy and Kinaxis have unveiled a strategic partnership aimed at developing innovative solutions for global supply chain networks within brand manufacturing. This collaboration is set to accelerate the performance of fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) and life science brands by enhancing digital transformation across their supply chains, leading to optimized costs, service, and revenue.
By integrating Kinaxis’ supply chain orchestration expertise with Nulogy’s external manufacturing collaboration platform, the partnership will empower customers to seamlessly share forecasts and order details with suppliers while accessing real-time inventory and capacity information. This fusion of technologies is designed to increase supply chain agility and responsiveness.
Nulogy’s platform, already trusted by global brands like L’Oréal, Colgate-Palmolive, and Church & Dwight, extends its capabilities to support a wide network of suppliers and manufacturing sites across the globe. “In today’s fast-changing market, digital synchronization between brands and suppliers is more crucial than ever,” said Jason Tham, CEO of Nulogy. “We are excited to collaborate with Kinaxis to enhance the efficiency of supply chain networks worldwide.”
Kinaxis Maestro, an AI-powered supply chain orchestration platform, plays a pivotal role in the partnership by providing enhanced visibility, control, and collaboration with key suppliers. “Our collaboration with Nulogy integrates critical supplier data into Maestro, allowing customers to improve simulations, digitize planning, and connect with their supplier networks more effectively,” said Bill Walker, Senior Director of Partner Solutions Extensions at Kinaxis.
This partnership is set to drive significant improvements in supply chain efficiency, empowering brands and their suppliers to operate more cohesively and effectively in a volatile global market.
A Recent Example of Similar Innovation: P&G and Microsoft Collaboration
In a related development, Procter & Gamble (P&G) recently partnered with Microsoft to enhance its supply chain operations using artificial intelligence and cloud computing. This partnership aims to revolutionize P&G’s manufacturing lines by enabling predictive maintenance, increasing production efficiency, and reducing waste. By integrating Microsoft’s AI and cloud solutions into their operations, P&G seeks to optimize their supply chain responsiveness and sustainability, echoing the broader trend of digital transformation in the manufacturing and supply chain industries.
Such collaborations highlight the increasing importance of technology-driven solutions to navigate the complexities of modern supply chains, a trend further demonstrated by the Nulogy-Kinaxis partnership.
