 YES Supply-Chain Subcontractors Collaboration

The company performs communication installations for satellite TV through three subcontractors, Communication Installations Servicing’ (CIS) companies. Each of the subcontractors has access through Internet Browser to the installation management application of YES to receive work orders installation’s status and other related information. Subcontractors can’t change, add or delete anything and can’t download the information from YES to their internal management applications. Yes’s CIS subcontractors print the work orders, sent it to the field teams and in parallel typed the Work Orders into their internal management applications, a process that caused high manual labor expenses, significant amount of errors and incapable of following up with the high volume of changes. This situation led to low customer retention, data inconsistencies between subcontractors and YES and loss of expensive raw material.

Required Solution

·         Integration and synchronization of work order data coming from YES into the subcontractor’s internal information systems

·         Online updates of the changes in the work orders

·         Activity monitoring support system for field teams
