The company will use the Kinaxis RapidResponse platform to gain full transparency across its entire supply chain.Jeffrey McCoun, Confluent vice president of global supply chain, said: “We work with customers to move ideas from prototype to high-volume production for products that can help people all over the world. Remaining agile to global disruption while being able to plan accurately on a large scale, is important for us as a company and our customers. Kinaxis’ platform aligned with our businesses needs and we are excited to work with them on our digital supply chain transformation.”
With Kinaxis, Confluent will have complete transparency of its supply chain, the ability to run multiple simulations and collaborate in real-time and leverage a suite of applications to give the agility and flexibility needed. Confluent joins a growing life sciences network within Kinaxis.
John Sicard, Kinaxis CEO, said: “Getting the right products into the hands of patients when they need them and keeping up with regulations, life sciences supply chains are about as complex as they come. That makes end-to-end coordination and orchestration vital. We are excited to work with Confluent to help them reach all of their supply chain goals.”
