Farm First App

Connect a global network of ecosystem actors for increased efficiency, streamlined order fulfillment, real-time collaboration, and automated supply chain visibility from farm to barn.

Overview

Large enterprises and agri-commodity houses sourcing from global farm suppliers face challenges in visibility, standardization, and collaboration.

Some of the key factors affecting agri-commodity supply chains include:

Poor visibility into stock availability and pricing for business transactions.
Manual and lack of standardized processes involving multi-parties with data/document exchanges (Purchase Order, Sales Invoice, Good Receipt Note, Weigh Bridge documents, Shipping Instructions, INCO Terms, etc.).
Poor collaboration and coordination among channel partners and their business functions and related ecosystem (Custom House Agent (CHA), Transporter, Inspection agency, processing plants, etc.).
Manual, paper-intensive activities that are error-prone and have long cycle times.
Manual reconciliation and matching for document submissions and receipt of payment leading to delayed payments.
Little to no exposure on third-party risk management or extended supply chains and non-compliances to multi-geographic jurisdictional requirements.
Limited ability to perform analysis due to data gaps and lack of ability to handle supply chain disruptions that can be mitigated using system & technology.
