Establishing a consistent, end-to-end process across the design-to-operate cycle enhances functional productivity, agile decision-making, and environmentally conscious operations. "A consistent end-to-end process streamlines workflows across design, planning, manufacturing, logistics, and operations—boosting overall productivity in every function." It "enables real-time scenario simulations and faster response times, making organizations more agile in adapting to changes." By "integrating sustainability into every stage of the value chain—from design to delivery—organizations can align operations with eco-friendly practices." The "Design to Operate framework includes Plan, Source, Make, Deliver, and Operate, forming a comprehensive approach to supply chain management." This unified approach "connects product development with enterprise and supply chain processes, linking product lifecycle data seamlessly." Options A and D are not explicitly highlighted, as tactical planning and delivery routing are specific aspects not central to the end-to-end enhancements.
