Chemical

Customer demands for fast deliveries and ever lower costs, coupled with increasingly difficult government regulations, place many new and unique challenges on chemical manufacturers. Add to that a continual need for innovative product formulas and recipes and ever-changing packaging variations—and the result is escalating complexity in all areas of the business, including development, purchasing, manufacturing, distribution and sales.

These market pressures require chemical manufacturers to find new ways to streamline every aspect of their business operations, including successfully maintaining many complex formulas and recipes, complying with regulatory and customer mandates and managing a wealth of compound-specific characteristics such as shelf life, potencies and unit-of-measure conversions. In addition, ongoing operational and inventory challenges require closer interaction between research and development (R&D) labs, procurement, production and marketing.
