Cloud-based ERP Vs. On-Premise ERP in Supply Chain

In an On-Premise ERP, the Customer manages ERP Software and the technology infrastructure (Hardware). This level of control enables the Customer to customize the software to suit their unique supply chain processes. This flexibility comes at the cost of managing the unfamiliar IT infrastructure terrain.

In a Cloud ERP, the ERP Vendor manages Cloud-based ERP, both software and hardware. The Customer can configure the ERP Software to meet their business requirements. There is limited flexibility in customizing the application to meet the unique business processes. In some cases, the Customer will need to modify their business processes to suit the operations supported by ERP.

The main benefits of Cloud ERP are reduction in cost and complexity of managing the IT Infrastructure. Irrespective of Cloud or On-premise ERP, the key is to understand the critical business requirements and ensure that the ERP system that you choose can quickly meet those requirements.

We are Passionate about Solving Wholesale Distributors Supply Chain Challenges

The traditional Wholesale Distribution Business is at an inflection point. Advanced technology and digitization negatively impact the conventional Wholesale Distribution business’s foundations at the supplier level, competition level, and customer level. Digitization has enabled its suppliers (manufacturers) to sell directly to the end customers, bypassing the distributors and retailers. It has also enabled traditional B2C players to target B2B and vice versa.
Digitization has also changed the nature of the competition. Online stores like Amazon have made many Wholesale Distributors redundant. Many ‘Internet Only’ distributors can offer better deals to the customers without any investment in physical warehouses.
Transparency in prices available through the internet has shrunk traditional margins. Besides, the information availability has also ensured the customers can identify ideal Distributors. The market has become very competitive.
The only way the business can thrive is by embracing digitization. The primary objective of the digitization strategy should be to reduce supply chain costs and improve efficiency. The other digitization strategy identifies new revenue models made available through digitization, e.g. value-added services.
A Supply Chain Management ERP is the core of the digitization strategy. ERP helps automate the planning process and creation of purchase orders. Warehouses can be equipped with bar codes, RFID, and QR codes, and the same is integrated with the ERP Application.
Analysis of ERP information will help identify fast-moving products, product groups with high profitability, new customer groups, and changing trends of the existing customer groups. ERP can also help the Distributor to move into E-Commerce. Integration of E-Commerce with ERP will ensure automation of Order Creation and the respective downstream transactions like available to promise, inventory planning, and procurement.
ERP can also create and track Drop-shipment orders and automatically reconcile the transactions. By integrating with the customer data, ERP can plan better, leading to improved inventory optimization, warehouse space utilization, and inventory turnover ratio.
Wholesale Distributors should embrace technology to handle digitalization challenges. Supply Chain Management ERP is the backbone of the digitization strategy.

New technology will upend the way Organizations are managing their Supply Chain. Technologies like Blockchain, Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), and Robotic Process Automation (RPA) will fundamentally alter the way businesses operate and will have a profound impact on the Supply Chains of the Future.

ERP for Supply Chain as a foundation to build a platform for future technologies. It means that ERP for Supply Chain is no longer a luxury but a necessity for an Organization to transform the Supply Chain of the future.
