Microsoft, together with Infosys, has launched a Supply Chain Center of Excellence recently. The Center is the first initiative from the two companies following the inking of an alliance aimed at lending a helping hand to manufacturers when it comes down to the complex management process associated with global supply chains. The Supply Chain Center of Excellence is available immediately to manufacturers worldwide, with the two companies aiming to introduce nothing more than social networking to a community of supply chain decision makers, professionals and experts. Microsoft is promising that manufactures will be able to take advantage of new capabilities designed to boost performance management, but also analytics and collaboration solutions and even event-based exception management.
