Testimonial
“We needed a solution that provided visibility into our manufacturing and distribution process at the supplier level, the ability to generate commercial documents and a platform on which to coordinate all of our global operations. We found the ideal solution with Management Dynamics. The Supply Chain Visibility solution could help us to double our business this year without having to add additional staff to our procurement organization.”

COO, Fiesta Gas Grills
Challenge
Fiesta Gas Grills, one of the largest grill manufacturers in North America, needed real-time visibility into their supply network. They wanted a solution that would effectively integrate their sourcing, which is primarily from China, to their operations in the United States and Canada. However the realities of today’s global supply chain - multiple trading partners with varying information systems and data definitions - created major operational challenges.
Solution
Management Dynamics’ Supply Chain Visibility (SCV) solution connects Fiesta Gas Grills with its multiple overseas suppliers, logistics providers, brokers and carriers on a single global platform to communicate critical purchase order, shipment and inventory information and to support collaborative logistics processes. With real-time shipment visibility, Fiesta can offer its national retail customers, order tracking with visibility into nine stages of the manufacturing process for better inventory management with less frequency of stock-outs. In addition, armed with essential information on each shipment from its suppliers, Fiesta’s procurement operations can make accurate decisions relating to diverting inventory or resolving bottlenecks.
