They build their own tools, basic EAI, basic order routing and basic data warehousing. These solutions are generally less robust and less functionally rich. The entire application architecture is highly configurable and extensible to take advantage of new technology advances and applications functionality. The solution can accommodate additions of new functionality provided by WorldChain or third-party vendors. The applications were designed to incorporate advanced order and inventory management functionality for network supply chains.
Some companies try to design their own IT solutions for their supply chain operations.
But it can be a significant undertaking. Research and development requires extensive IT resources, and the process may take as long as two years. Even companies with no IT infrastructures can communicate with the WorldChain system through simple wired or wireless access to the Internet. Role-based security, based on logon ID and password, protects overall value chain privacy and guarantees access to transactions and key information based on a user's role in the supply chain. Inc.
