挑战

Dana, a major supplier in the automotive industry, faced significant challenges in managing their complex supply chain. With over 100 manufacturing sites, thousands of supplier sites, and nearly 10,000 supply paths globally, Dana needed a more efficient way to gather information and respond to customer inquiries during supply chain disruptions. Additionally, they lacked sufficient data to monitor risks related to geographic regions, such as natural disasters or geopolitical events. This made it difficult for Dana to proactively manage risks and ensure the stability of their supply chain.
