Supply chain and operations

Historically, businesses used linear value chains to sell their goods and services. Digital ecosystems made up of market networks will be able to support hybrid forms of cooperation and rivalry with the supply chain of the future. At the same time, industries are being shaped more than ever before by government regulations, technology, and demographics. In this Transformational Era, businesses must fundamentally restructure their supply chains and operations to increase performance and creativity.

A collection of asset-backed solutions, the KRA Supply Chain Reinvention Framework is made possible by cutting-edge technologies including data analytics, blockchain, machine learning, robots, and artificial intelligence. End-to-end supply chain strategy, strategic architecture, operational excellence, and supply chain resilience are all included in this package of solutions. By increasing collaboration and utilizing the creativity and intelligence of your whole supplier ecosystem, we can help you better serve your customers.

Supply-side Optimization

More than half of procurement leaders surveyed by KRA recently believe that going digital will immediately enable cost savings, innovation, supply assurance, and service. For the supply side to succeed, the right suppliers with the right competencies must be chosen, they must be engaged under the right contractual agreements to drive performance, and they must then be actively managed as the business and the supply base grow. Our solution offers a complete framework for deploying custom assets and processes that will enable effective and efficient processes to manage commercial excellence, optimize the supplier portfolio, and carry out lights-out operations.
