Oracle and the Supply Chain
Oracle is consolidating the step it took into the supply chain industry with the purchase of G-Log last year, by working on a manufacturing execution system (MES). The company announced this new offering for manufacturers at the OpenWorld User Conference held a month ago. The solution will aid in the collection of data for and the supervision of the shop floor, besides providing tools to help plan networks as and when customers leave and join the supply chain. MMH reports:
“We can honestly claim our planning is best in class,” says Oracle’s vice president of supply chain strategy, Jonathan Chorley. “Our transportation solution is best in class. Our WMS may not meet everyone’s needs, but it offers robust functionality for many people. Knit them together and you get the synergies and scale advantage of working with a best-in-class enterprise resource planning (ERP) provider like Oracle.”
