Transportation Visibility

Transportation and Distribution Supply Chain Management

Track Your Assets and the Vehicles that Move Them Between Your Facilities with IoT Supply Chain Tracking Technologies and Real-Time Data Insights

Transportation and Distribution visibility allows companies to track a variety of items: shipping containers, racks, pallets, machines used to move those items from point A to point B, and the warehouse dock doors that all of the items go in to and out of.

Anything involved in the moving and transporting of the goods and materials your company makes could be included in this critical area of supply chain visibility. Planning your shipping routes, dock door usage, and storage methods while not in transit all impact your ability to understand – and optimize – transportation and distribution operations for your company.

How Does Transportation and Distribution Visibility Impact Your Supply Chain Operations?

Accurate information on location and status are just the start. Understanding your transportation and distribution operations is part of complete, end-to-end supply chain visibility. Transportation insights include location, route planning and optimization, dock door usage planning, and cube optimization. Distribution visibility can include inventory storage, warehouse or yard planning for activities like FIFO and deadline planning, and proper cross dock operations.

When you gain visibility and accurate data about your transportation and distribution activities, you can plan to impact both the daily activities for your company and 3PL/4PL providers in addition to the certainty of that data to impact business operations and decision making.
