4flow software customer day

The virtual 4flow software customer day, “Using the 4flow iTMS on your path of supply chain digitization”, brought together supply chain experts from AGCO, Bosch and Mars, who presented their best practices for different modules of the 4flow iTMS software solution.

Best practice 1:

Comprehensive iTMS implementation around the globe

Best practice 2:

Increasing productivity in exception management and achieving end-to-end transparency with iTMS module

Best practice 3:

Reporting and supply chain controlling with 4flow vista® Analytics

In addition to the presentations, speakers and attendees had the opportunity to dive deeper into specific topics and discuss individual questions in breakout sessions, which offered time for an inspiring exchange of information. Christian Nieters, executive vice president at 4flow, and Tilo Schmitz, director of product management at 4flow, provided insights into the iTMS roadmap and 4flow’s new business intelligence solution, 4flow vista® Analytics.

Software experts from 4flow explained how businesses can use the 4flow iTMS roadmap to identify possible savings in their end-to-end supplier and distribution networks and sustainably reduce transportation costs.

4flow vista® Analytics, the new business intelligence solution, enables different analysis functions, customer-specific reporting and informative visualizations. These can be used to identify upcoming changes, new information and unexpected issues more quickly, and to rationalize decision-making, minimize risks and establish an information advantage to become more competitive.

“In times of high uncertainty, supply chain transparency is a fundamental success factor for global businesses. The iTMS achieves end-to-end visibility, enabling users to recognize and manage exceptions early on, while continuously optimizing supply chain networks. This was also highlighted in our customers’ presentations at 4flow software customer day”, commented Christian Nieters.
