Summary

Collaborative supply networks (CSNs) combine elements of demand management that Forrester described as integrated business planning and some elements of supply chain control towers. Use CSNs to identify and authenticate community-validated partners for rapid, reliable collaboration on supply chain resilience and sustainability; and to simplify collaborative demand planning and fulfilment. But to realize these benefits, you have to select from a wide field of vendors. Tech executives should use this report to understand the value they can expect from a CSN provider and to select one based on size, vertical market focus, geographical presence, and functionality.
