Companies to do this well fine that
their customer service performance you know on
time and complete I et cetera I
improves in some cases substantially and if they happen to be
in a make stock environment where they're making products putting it into
an inventory
their finished inventory drops so customer service up inventory dropped
and
the plant frequently benefits because there there are fewer
lurching jerking severe
rate changes, production rate changes, those kinds of things.
There there are
in many cases in some cases substantial benefits
from the procurement site up

lately
