About 3SC Solutions

SS Supply Chain Solutions, operating as 3SC, is a supply chain technology company established in 2012 by co-founders Lalit and Sarita Das. Lalit Das, the CEO, brings over 25 years of experience in the supply chain and manufacturing sectors to the firm. The company was founded to address the underutilization of data in supply chain decision-making by leveraging analytics. Headquartered in Gurugram, India, 3SC has expanded its presence with offices in Amsterdam, Bengaluru, and Pune, catering to a global clientele.

3SC provides AI-driven software and analytics for end-to-end supply chain management. The business model is centered on a Software as a Service (SaaS) offering, complemented by a variable 'Pay per Use' model, making its solutions accessible to a wide range of businesses. The company serves over 75 global clients across diverse industries, including pharmaceuticals, healthcare, consumer goods (FMCG/FMCD), e-commerce, and industrials, with notable clients such as Flipkart, Philips Healthcare, and GE. Revenue is generated through its platform subscriptions and services, with one of its platforms, SCAI, projected to generate significant annual revenue.

The company's core offerings are its two main platforms: Supply Chain Analytics & Planning (SCAI) and Supply Chain Execution & Transport Management (iTMS). SCAI provides an integrated suite for business planning, demand forecasting, digital twin-based risk simulation, and carbon footprint mapping. The iTMS platform manages the entire shipment lifecycle, from planning and optimization to execution and tracking. These platforms are designed to address key challenges like lack of visibility, unoptimized processes, and high costs. Specific products include 'Demand AI' for forecasting, 'Replenishment AI' for inventory management, and 'Control Tower' services for centralized, real-time decision-making and coordination of 3PL and 4PL services. By integrating predictive, prescriptive, and descriptive analytics, 3SC enables clients to optimize inventory, improve forecast accuracy, and streamline logistics operations.

Since its inception, 3SC has achieved significant milestones, including establishing its first Analytics Delivery Centre in 2016 and launching SaaS products in 2017. The company expanded into the European market in 2018. It has secured substantial funding, including a $15 million Series B round in 2021 and an additional $4 million in 2024 from investor GEF Capital, to enhance its AI capabilities and fuel global expansion, particularly in Europe and the US.
