SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT
The cii – Supply Chain Management Solutions
A sustainable supply chain is becoming an increasingly important competitive aspect, especially for internationally operating organisations. Orientation towards ecology, economy and society along the entire supply chain is due above all to the increased stakeholder claims, but also to monetary incentives.
The pressure from external stakeholders, such as customers and their demand for transparency and sustainability, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and other policymakers that are forcing adaption to changing environmental conditions, increases. The incentive to improve the image by means of ecologically or socially acceptable behavior, while at the same time gaining competitive advantages from competitors and competing supply chains as well as possible cost reductions (falling costs due to new innovative methods for avoiding waste, etc.) contribute to this.
The development of sustainable supply chain management is combined with considerable organizational effort. Consistent monitoring is thereby indispensable.
The cii Supply Chain Management Solution supports organizations in this task. Data collection, monitoring and reporting can be done within one solution. With a powerful database in the background, information can be collected, consolidated, and processed, along the entire supply chain.

Integration and adaption
cii has its strengths in its adaptability. cii is fully customisable and adaptable and can be used with existing structures and sheets and make use of them without complex integration. It can be fully customised to your needs. As most sustainability management software solutionsĀ meet the needs of their customers only to a certain degree and need a lot of adjustments on customer side, cii is developed as a solution that fits the needs of our customers and adapts to your demands and not the other way around. We offer an evolving solution developed in close consultation with our customers and our global partner network.
Excel-to-Web
cii is an Excel-to-Web solution. This means we will transfer existing Excel-sheets, reports or templates to the cii web interface and add database driven OLAP functionalities. This gives you and your coworkers the look-and-feel of using Excel but with the advanced functionality of a database driven system. Data entry becomes safer and analytics can be done within cii with customized dashboards or directly in your familiar Excel environment. Providing you with the best of both worlds.
