Overview: Distribution is a high-volume, low-margin business that rewards companies that are persistent, disciplined, and in firm control of the situation despite unpredictable elements. Every detail must fall into place in order to run a distribution company with precision; this goal can be accomplished only with data integrity and timely information. However, many midsize distributors saddled with antiquated systems may no longer have the right stuff to compete with larger competitors that carry more products from top-tier suppliers. This paper examines the key challenges facing distribution companies as the rules of the game change under the twin forces of globalization and industry consolidation.
