Technology integration & process optimisation: There are many ways in which technology can support manufacturing businesses with both stock control and cash flow. Even B2B manufacturers can now give their customers access to online portals so that they can make purchases easier and more smoothly, thus moving stock and receiving revenue faster.

Having sales and stock information available at the click of a button enables businesses to make faster decisions and be more dynamic in its operations.  Most organisations already have good technology in place – for example, CRM systems and eCommerce platforms that track sales and revenue.
