Block relies on Oracle Cloud SCM, ERP to keep two key finance businesses humming

Block, formerly known as Square, produces and distributes millions of devices to retailers and service providers worldwide. Check out the latest success story published by Oracle: “Block relies on Oracle Cloud SCM, ERP to keep two key finance businesses humming.” This story provides in-depth details on how Block recognized the need for a single platform to manage multiple supply chains across 96 countries, replacing disparate systems. They selected Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM and ERP to gain better visibility into inventory, transit times, and shipment costs, helping optimize operations and reduce fulfilment time from five days to three. The implementation also enabled Block to make cost-effective supply chain decisions, such as reducing reliance on air shipments in favour of ocean shipments. As the implementation partner, Trinamix worked closely with Oracle, providing consulting services for three years to help architect and deploy Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM globally. Trinamix also supported the development of a reverse auction capability, allowing Block to solicit competitive bids from suppliers regularly.
