2. Improve transportation operations with higher levels of visibility
Future-proof transportation planning tools should be much more intelligent than now. Given the rapid advances in inexpensive sensors, geodata, and software technologies, it is essential to have access to high-resolution, real-time data from the enterprise systems as well as external services. On Solvoyo’s platform, you can easily exchange data and intelligence with multiple sources – ERP, WMS, TMS, CRM for enterprise data as well as services that provide data from embedded sensors on trucks, navigation devices and package tracking services to name a few.
3. Plan at the tactical level: forecast and procure transportation
Transportation is a significant cost for retailers and CPG companies. Yet, many see it as an operational support function and disregard the effect of long-term carrier contracts and the projected freight capacity shortages. The bottom line is that transportation should be part of tactical and strategic decisions and planned beyond the operational window. Solvoyo platform will help you forecast future requirements by mode and support carrier bidding and the purchasing cycle. The same platform will help you operationalize the strategy and your tactics, ensuring vertical alignment of enterprise decisions.
4. Make transportation planning a part of your end-to-end vision
Traditional transportation planning software is still focused on addressing the transportation challenges of the past. In today’s competitive business world with rapidly changing dynamics, your transportation planning process has to be a part of a broader end-to-end planning and execution support vision, working in lock-step with production, supply, and fulfillment functions. With Solvoyo’s end-to-end capabilities, you can automate concurrent planning of priority-based order fulfillment and transportation, align production to maximize truck fill rates and coordinate inbound milk-runs with optimal production sequence.
