Supply Dynamics

Their solutions are designed to systematically reconnect finished goods demand for outsourced production parts to the materials and processes used in their production. It helps customers to recover significant value trapped throughout the extended raw material supply chain. Benefits include the ability to understand total value chain material needs, influence and control material and part sourcing decisions, and mitigate part and material price volatility. The solution is a non-invasive, cloud-based, multi-enterprise analytics suite that provides end-to-end visibility and control across the extended raw material supply chain. Customers use SDX to collaborate with n-tier suppliers on the purchasing of common metals, plastics, electronic components, standard catalog parts and other items. Coupled with a proprietary (blueprint to bill-of-material) data conversion process called Part Attribute Characterization and a one-of-a-kind metals price benchmarking solution, Supply Dynamics offers manufacturing companies unmatched visibility into material and process demand through all tiers of the extended supply chain.

Meet PAC - Part Attribute Characterization
Optimizing any manufacturing supply chain is virtually impossible without first obtaining reliable, structured information. Comprehensive supply chain visibility starts with what we call ‘the extended bill of materials.’

PAC (or Part Attribute Characterization) is a software and engineering driven service that delivers reliable, structured information about the raw materials and processes that go into your parts irrespective of where parts are made. Information is derived directly from engineering drawings and other technical data you already have. Bonus: you don’t have to ask your suppliers for it.

In short, PAC brings harmony to the Unstructured Data that currently resides across disparate systems at multiple locations in your extended supply chain. PAC enables supply chain optimization and the Digital Transformation you have been waiting for.
