Lack of visibility into invoice vs dispatch spending metrics
Manual processing of 25+ dispatches & 100+ invoices daily 12+ Full time employees (FTE’s) engaged in logistics functions that include loaders/unloaders, packaging staff, clerical staff, accountant, purchase assistant, vehicle supervisor, scheduler etc. Lack of visibility into invoice vs dispatch spending metrics i.e. how much is the spend on logistics for every unit of income. Managing owned vehicles is a big hassle (time consuming & expensive). Managing market truckers (50+), their SLA’s, on time delivery requirements is a challenge, no visibility into their internal working or performance.
Automated Invoicing Workflow i.e. Transporters (Vendors) submit invoices and that's approved (or rejected) by customers.
The CargoFL Team worked closely with the customer’s team to enable and bring to front a demand sensing and capacity planning approach so they can envision a centralised supply chain platform. In the CargoFL Connected Logistics platform, a wall (dashboard) was developed specifically to highlight different set of metrics that’s required from a management perspective to make real meaningful & insightful decisions.
The below is a quick summary of implementation within CargoFL for this customer :
- Order processing & paper work automated
- All the Transporters serving this customer also on boarded to same platform
- Effective collaboration between Customers & Transporters
- Automated Invoicing Workflow i.e. Transporters (Vendors) submit invoices and that’s approved (or rejected) by customers
- Invoice vs Dispatch Metrics
- Real Time Tracking & Product Tracing End to End
