Are you sure that catching up
event management of supply chain??
According to customer's diversity needs/requirement due to globalization,
and intensive fluctuations in supply and demand,
minimum inventory with thorough production plan is essential element.
However, when there are production bases overseas, the supply chain
may become complicated by increasing transportation lead time.
Are any problems like these occurring in logistics?
Are any of these
situations
happening
at your work sites?
Management has become a complicated black box due to global supply chains with overseas warehouses, factories sales companies, 3PLs, brokers and multiple transportation modes air, sea truck and rail.
Currently, only warehouse physical inventory are under control, but those of which in-transit or slow-moving are hard to control/handle them accurately and finally causing excess inventory.
Regarding to delivery date inquiry, corresponding individually against each company by phone, email, searching web site, and this consuming huge labor.
Suddenly, a big gap occurred against initial ETA, but this delay will be recognised at the final stage.
Individual shipping notifications via emails, faxes and phone calls. And also time-zone differences makes this situation more worse.
The company wants to see each global supply chain information (inventory, loading and unloading, transport, customs forms, etc.) as more merged and organized condition.
The company also want to monitor not only overseas affiliated company inventory but also cross transport (out-out delivery) as well from Japan remotely.
The company would like to be able to make unified queries regarding different modes of transport, including air, sea, and truck-based transportation.
The company would like to know transport conditions at not just the B/L or invoice number, but also the product number or item number level.
The company would like to know the compliance rate, such as whether they could deliver as planned, or how long it was delayed.
The company is using an inventory/loading and unloading inquiry system, but is dissatisfied with how information is displayed for searches and reports, therefore they are unable to make good use.
Timely information is not provided, and it is tedious to check the freight tracking sites of each carrier.
Through centralized management of global inventory and timely checking of
transportation statuses, Visibility Service will manage and support distribution events
on the supply chain and back up your production plans.
