But, you’re manually processing orders received via post, fax and email. With a growing number of key trading partners, this time-consuming process involves dealing with a mountain of paperwork and thousands of incoming fax orders, resulting in slow order processing and a large number of errors. You’re also experiencing problems with your existing supply chain system, including lengthy lead times for on-boarding.
