Build smarter supply chains from wherever you are
What is order management software?
Order management software tracks orders from inception to delivery, and manages processes and data connected to the order as it moves through its lifecycle. It tracks all information, including order capture, inventory management, order fulfillment and after-sales services and scheduling, and provides real-time visibility into orders from all channels.¹
Orchestrate smarter order management and fulfillment
Getting your customers what they need — when and where they need it — has never been more challenging. It is possible to manage through complexity and preserve business continuity, while leaning in to cost optimization. IBM clients have reduced shipping costs by 7-8% using our order and inventory management applications.¹ You can track orders from inception to delivery, manage processes and data throughout the order lifecycle, and get real-time visibility into every order across all channels. Accurate up-to-the-minute inventory views and available-to-promise data help you maximize responsiveness and keep more customer promises. Embedded AI enables smarter sourcing and fulfillment decisions at the lowest cost to serve.
