Mass Notification for Manufacturing and Supply Chain

Manufacturing and supply chains must focus on the customer, but also have information easily available to business partners. How can this part of the businesses world use Intelligent Notification to streamline operations and maintain a competitive edge?

Here are just a few examples uses for notification in transportation and logistics:

• •  The credit card server of an online clothing store crashes during heavy sales; IT staff must be notified to fix it quickly
•  
• •  A top toy manufacturer discovers that children are choking on a new toy; stores must be alerted and product must be recalled immediately
•  
• •  A major electronics retailer is informed that a shipment has been delayed; stores must be alerted
•  
• •  A chemical spill occurs in your plant; you need to notify and gather a crew of maintenance workers to clean it up fast
•  
• •  Customers are waiting for news of a product release; they must be notified when the launch date slips
•  
• •  Your marketing team develops a rare, limited-time offer; you want to let prestige customers know at once

How Intelligent Notification works in manufacturing and supply chains

Effective notification involves more than just sending a one-way alert. You must be able to quickly determine who needs to know what all along the chain, and your message must be adapted as your contacts respond. Intelligent Notification technology handles this complex task, rapidly launching or cascading messages to groups of any size, whether in one location or spread all over the world. MIR3 data management includes sophisticated tools to pull information from various databases to make sure you’re always using the latest contact information.

Intelligent Notification is used in manufacturing and supply chain for business continuity and disaster recovery (BC/DR), for emergency alerting, and to keep IT systems up and running.
