It is based on an online survey among 29 manufacturers from over 20 companies in core industries (Basic Apparel & Footwear, Consumer Packaged Goods, Food & Beverage, & Over-the-Counter Pharmaceuticals.)  They are all currently using or trying to use downstream data.
  • Objective: To understand the current state of downstream data, what types are being used and how the use of downstream data is changing supply chain processes.
