B-Op and ZUGSEIL enable for each supply chain participant to freely share all their supply chain information with all other participants of the supply chain at no cost!
Benefits of sharing knowledge
Generally sharing supply chain knowledge with partners often leads to greater collaboration, transparency, and efficiency!
Supply chain masquerading
Withholding certain information from downstream partners can be strategically advantageous. The key benefits of not sharing upstream supply chain knowledge include:
- protecting competitive advantage
- minimizing dependency
- reducing complexity
- safeguarding supplier relationships
- maintaining control over margins and product quality.
To achieve this, each b-op digital can configure trust relations based on the b-op e-Business collaboration model to not forward specific information.
Conclusion
Ultimately, whether a company chooses to share or withhold upstream supply chain knowledge depends on its specific goals, competitive position, and the nature of its relationships with downstream partners. A balanced approach, where critical and strategic information is shared judiciously, often yields the best outcomes. ZUGSEIL and B-Op support both options!
