Description:
The second generation of b-to-b commerce is focused squarely on partnering with suppliers
for direct material purchasing so as to remove inefficiencies from the entire product
development and delivery process. Vendors are flocking to the supply-chain management
space to offer software that often dramatically shifts the traditional buyer/supplier
interaction from a distant, adversarial association focused on price negotiations to an
intimate relationship focused on collaboration. Solutions are intended to allow buyers to
whittle away at inventory and improve manufacturing efficiency by providing unprecedented
visibility up and down the supply chain.

Description:
The evolution of warehouse management systems (WMS) is very similar to that of many other
software solutions. Initially a system to control movement and storage of materials within
a warehouse, the role of WMS is expanding to including light manufacturing, transportation
management, order management, and complete accounting systems. To use the grandfather of
operations-related software, MRP, as a comparison, material requirements planning (MRP)
started as a system for planning raw material requirements in a manufacturing environment.
Soon MRP evolved into manufacturing resource
