e•Chain Supply Chain Management (SCM)
 
e•chain helps in automating the supply chain management business processes. Supply chain management (SCM) is the process of planning, implementing, and controlling the operations of the supply chain with the purpose to satisfy customer requirements as efficiently as possible. Supply chain management spans all movement and storage of raw materials, work-in-process inventory, and finished goods from point-of-origin to point-of-consumption. Organizations increasingly find that they must rely on effective supply chains, or networks, to successfully compete in the global market and networked economy Online demo request.
