Team SCM Studio
BRIDGE is a robust and scalable shipping management platform, created by featuring the untouched grey areas of the supply chain process by common ERP systems. No other centralised platform has been able to tackle the persistent problems in the supply chain industry head on.
BRIDGE is a product developed by SCM Studio Ltd., a company with an integration between supply chain and IT, pioneered by Christine Jennifer who acts as the Director – Product, Thiwanka Nimalrathna who acts as the Product Manager, Subodha Perera who stands as the Director – Engineering and Randika Prasad who is the Software Architect for BRIDGE. Christine has served in the supply chain industry for over 10 years while Subodha has furthered himself in the IT industry for a similar period of time while serving several Fortune 100 Companies. Thus, not only is BRIDGE one of a kind, but it is also curated using years of experience and expertise in both industries.
SCM Studio is a culmination of both IT and supply chain which was started with the intention of addressing the many problems faced in the supply chain industry. The company’s prime product BRIDGE was developed to serve this purpose. The problems in supply chain management persist around processes such as realistic planning, coordination and documentation. Initiating these types of processes are currently undertaken manually and as a result many mistakes are made, along with much time lost. BRIDGE is a cloud-based shipping management platform which simplifies all these complex processes to help optimise supply chains.
Christine Jennifer stated that the basic principles and foundations of BRIDGE lie in automation. Along with this, BRIDGE addresses requirements in real-time which benefits the user, management and the client company. Single window visibility, statistical analysis, synchronisation of operations, improved time efficiency and overall cost reductions are just the tip of the iceberg of the benefits that could be reaped. BRIDGE has already been implemented in local enterprises and multinationals in Sri Lanka.
