Digital Supply Chain: Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Digital Supply Chain engagements with MYGO Consulting.
Where should we start with supply chain digitization?
We recommend starting with our Digital Discovery workshop, which examines your entire supply chain landscape and identifies the highest-impact opportunity areas. For most organizations, demand planning accuracy and inventory optimization deliver the fastest ROI. However, if your primary pain point is warehouse throughput or freight cost, we may recommend starting with EWM or TM. The discovery produces a data-driven roadmap specific to your business context.
How does MYGO's Digital Discovery differ from a typical supply chain assessment?
Most assessments focus on one area (planning or warehousing or transportation) in isolation. Our Digital Discovery looks at all the chess pieces together: how your planning decisions affect warehouse operations, how transportation constraints feed back to production scheduling, and where data handoffs between systems create blind spots. The output is a strategic roadmap that sequences initiatives based on cross-functional impact, not just functional improvement.
Can you integrate our supply chain with non-SAP systems?
Yes. Most supply chain landscapes include a mix of SAP and non-SAP systems for WMS, TMS, supplier portals, and IoT platforms. We use SAP Integration Suite and standard APIs to connect these systems into a unified data model. Our integration architecture ensures that your control tower and planning platform have visibility across the entire supply chain regardless of the underlying technology stack.
What industries does MYGO serve with digital supply chain solutions?
Our digital supply chain practice serves consumer goods, life sciences, automotive, chemical, and discrete manufacturing. Each industry has specific supply chain characteristics we address through industry-specific templates and process variants. For example, life sciences requires serialization and cold chain management, consumer goods focuses on promotional demand and retail collaboration, and automotive requires JIT/JIS synchronization.
How long does a full supply chain transformation take?
A comprehensive digital supply chain transformation typically runs 12 to 18 months across multiple phases. However, we structure programs to deliver incremental value every 3-4 months. The first phase often focuses on planning (IBP) or execution (EWM/TM) based on your biggest pain point, followed by additional modules and advanced analytics capabilities.
How do you measure supply chain transformation success?
We establish baseline metrics during the Digital Discovery across key dimensions: forecast accuracy (MAPE/bias), inventory turns, OTIF delivery, logistics cost per unit, and planning cycle time. These metrics are tracked through the control tower and reviewed monthly with the supply chain leadership team. We also measure process adoption and user satisfaction to ensure the transformation delivers sustainable operational improvement.
