Supply Chain Optimization via Integrated Vendor Managed Inventory Optimizing the supply chain and creating lasting customer relationships is critical in every industry. The supply chain universally consists of a disparate set of systems that struggle to talk to one another. That lack of communication makes optimization very challenging. Applying cloud-based B2B integration technology to this problem allows for the implementation of fully automated Integrated Vendor Managed Inventory (IVMI) solutions. SummaTG is a market leader in managed integration services and has a set of solutions designed to create tight, lasting and economically efficient trading partner relationships.www.summatg.com 1

The Goals of Integrated IVMI IVMI solutions are a critical component of driving supply chain efficiency and customer satisfaction: Visible • Visibility: Integrated VMI requires full supply chain visibility. Where are the products? What’s selling? Optimized What’s not? Without visibility how could we optimize? Efficient • Optimization: Integrated VMI provides optimized inventory allocation throughout the supply chain. By monitoring supply chain activity over time, VMI algorithms can provide predictive recommendations for future shipments. The goal is to prevent stock- out conditions without over allocating, over producing and over distributing. • Efficiency: Integrated VMI, when properly implemented, drives supply chain efficiency via optimized use of capital, improved GMROI and efficient allocation of human capital.www.summatg.com 2

The Connection between B2B Integration and Integrated VMI Integrated VMI requires electronic visibility into the transaction flow across the distribution network. B2B integration solutions, such as SummaTG’s managed integration hub, provide transport mechanisms, document translation, archiving and business analytics that enable effective Integrated VMI deployments. It’s not possible to optimize the supply chain unless accurate and timely transaction data is available for analysis. B2B integration hubs have full visibility into the flow of orders and therefore can be used to create predictive inventory allocation recommendations.www.summatg.com 3

By using a B2B integration hub to enable Integrated VMI, we facilitate accurate forecasting, can react immediately to pre-configured inventory trigger points and generate a wealth of historical data for future refinement of our allocation decisions. When properly implemented, the algorithms use historical patterns and supply chain variables (e.g. transit time, safety-stock preferences, customer usage patterns) to provide the best recommendations to account managers responsible for ensuring customer satisfaction.www.summatg.com 4
