In the face of market-driven prices, companies are increasingly turning to enhanced customer service to differentiate themselves from the competition. Oracle iStore provides a fast and easy way to allow customers to enter their own orders, or check the status of existing orders.

And mobile supply chain applications allow you to monitor deliveries from anywhere in the world.

As markets shift geographically, companies often find that their existing plants are no longer near key customers. High transportation costs erode margins, but it's not always practical or even possible to move processing plants closer to demand.

The result: you meet customer requirements at the lowest possible cost.

As margins grow tighter, equipment failure and unplanned downtime are more costly than ever.

A unified data model provides a single, accurate view of maintenance activities, and you can track real-time asset costs and activities throughout your enterprise. The esult: you maximize asset utilization while minimizing maintenance costs.
