Thursday 17 August 2017 00:59 CET | News

APICS, a supply chain group, and JD.com have started working on an omnichannel distribution system for global and regional ecommerce invoicing.

APICS’ SCOR operations reference model and JD’s IT platform will deliver functionalities for a benchmarking system that will provide JD’s major supplier with real-time comparisons to their competitors and their respective industries at both the regional and global levels.

The solution builds on data derived from real-work surveys but it will also combine AI-powered technology for real-time results and comparison.

APICS and JD said the agreement, which builds on a partnership entered into last March, can help both companies offer better services and solutions for omnichannel supply chain management as well as cultivate an international supply chain community focused on performance improvements.
