Supply chain integrity is a vital component of every business's operational plan—from sourcing raw materials to completing construction and meeting service commitments. Location-based technology helps businesses understand all aspects of a supply chain through data visualization and analysis. Examining data through a geographic lens gives stakeholders unique insights into levels of service, supply quantities, product movement, and risk mitigation.
