Many consumer packaged goods (CPG) brand supply chains outsource packaging and manufacturing to external suppliers. However, in doing so they lose visibility of their orders beyond their four walls, which, in an increasingly volatile consumer market, can lead to miscommunication, delays, and costly errors.

Nulogy’s Ecosystem Solution enables CPG brand customers to build responsive and agile supply chains to help navigate this unpredictable yet rapidly evolving market. With the Ecosystem Solution, brands are able to digitally transform their end-to-end supply chains to allow for improved collaboration, communication and visibility with their external packaging and manufacturing partners.

The Ecosystem Solution does this by digitizing and standardizing operational data from external suppliers’ shop floors and directing the data flow to a centralized source of truth, allowing for a multi-enterprise approach to supply chain collaboration.

Key benefits include the ability to:

Adapt and respond faster to market opportunities by harnessing materials and production visibility across the external network, ensuring close collaboration with external manufacturers and packagers to fulfill orders on-time and in-full

Achieve sustainability by having visibility into quantity and lot codes of raw materials and finished goods, enabling improved management and usage of materials throughout the supply chain to reduce shortages and write-offs, as well as achieve waste reduction and sustainability goals

Increase team bandwidth by elevating the planning team’s ability to focus on strategic parts of the business by automating non-value-added and administrative tasks like data gathering and reporting

Eliminate avoidable costs by enabling teams to take preventative measures by automating alerts for at-risk orders, ensuring on-time, in-full fulfillment and avoiding penalties, expedited shipping, materials write offs and labor overtime

Scale the external network by quickly and easily onboarding new contract manufacturers and packagers onto a cloud-based platform that aggregates data and standardizes visibility and collaboration

Nulogy is used by some of the world’s largest brands – such as Colgate-Palmolive, Church & Dwight and L’Oreal – to improve the agility and responsiveness of their supply chain. Of their experiences, key partners from each company shared the following:

“Nulogy has been a strategic partner in the digitalization of our supply chain. By enabling automation and increasing visibility across our network, Nulogy has helped us collaborate more effectively with our external contract packaging and promotional assembly partners to drive greater agility, sustainability, and cost optimization.” - Véronique Gravel, Logistic Director at L’Oréal Canada

“With the recent digital transformation through Nulogy we’re breaking down barriers and bringing light to what was once a black box…We track the performance of our customization partners with service, cost and quality and agility as key indicators and we achieved immediate improvements in all of them with Nulogy. Our service levels improved by 200 basis points due to increased responsiveness by collaborating more closely in the planning processes. Digitizing our extended supply chain will unlock agility and flexibility and our transformation will continue until our full network is digitally enabled. – Selin Celikkol, Global Customization Manager, Colgate-Palmolive

"We chose Nulogy as our digitization partner to create an environment of collaboration and visibility with our contract manufacturing suppliers. Nulogy has been instrumental in enabling our internal teams and co-mans to work better and smarter together and has given us the visibility into our production and inventory to help us be more responsive to market opportunities." – Nicole Barrick, Director of Global Manufacturing Services, Church & Dwight
