transformation of these materials into intermediate and finished products, and the distribution of these finished
products to customers.

Inefficient And Incomplete Data
• Manual data entry is widespread; critical information is often manually reentered at many points in the chain.
• The manual intervention of Purchasing Clerks and Order Processors are critical links in supply-chain information flows.
• A lack of system integrity creates a continuing need for verbal or written authorizations to protect against costly errors or even catastrophic failures.
• Firms operate without needed data.Planning Report 04-2 Economic Impact of Inadequate Infrastructure for Supply Chain Integration
