Logistics
Global Collaboration Meets Seamless Integration
Logistics providers have a unique challenge: addressing customer innovation while lowering internal costs. Today, 3PLs are faced with outdated legacy applications, manual processes, and little to no visibility into the supply chain. When you consider that processing documentation accounts for more than 30 percent of item transportation costs, senior executives are looking to business integration solutions to provide automated document exchange with a wide variety of participants:
SEEBURGER provides single platform integration to reduce operating costs, increase trading partner automation, and improve overall process visibility.
SEEBURGER specifically addresses:
100% Partner Integration: Organizations must have flexible solutions to automate trading relationships with their supply chain regardless of their technical capabilities. This includes EDI, XML, Web Services, Web Portals, Spoke connectivity, and solutions to process paper and faxes more efficiently.
Globalization: 3PLs must be able to expand their channel capabilities to all regions of the globe.
Global Visibility & Inventory Reductions: In order to stay competitive, 3PLs need accurate visibility of their inventory on hand, delivery schedules, and demand forecasts. Solutions must include capabilities for:
- Vendor Managed Inventory
- Collaborative Planning, Forecasting & Replenishment
- Message Tracking: Customer Visibility Portal
