	Challenge
	The second largest distributor of wine and spirits in the US , Glazer’s operates in a tightly regulated industry with outdated business processes and systems, and was challenged by a lack of visibility to inbound orders from its global vendors and suppliers. In addition, the company’s manual order and shipment tracking processes frequently led to significant delays and difficulty in determining accurate inventory levels and expected arrival dates, leading to reactive expediting and additional intra-company transportation moves.
	Solution
	Management Dynamics’ Supply Chain Visibility and Event Management solution provides Glazer’s with complete order and shipment visibility; synchronizes logistics data across Glazer’s supplier and trading partner network; and measures the performance of vendors and service providers using comprehensive scorecards and reports. With access to real-time data on shipment dispatches and warehouse receipts, users can now better manage safety stock levels at each distribution centre, avoid expediting and reduce domestic transportation costs.
	Benefits
	Improved visibility of inbound inventory Better understanding of supply variability Enhanced communication and collaboration with global vendors and suppliers Comprehensive analysis and measurement of vendor and carrier performance Read the Press Release Download the Case Study
