Distribution companies are increasingly faced with strategic global sourcing challenges, while having to maintain localized product availability. Customers are demanding higher service levels as the manufacturing and retail industries embrace 3PL solutions, and as a result, distribution companies often experience inventory expansion, growth in value-added services, and new complexities in packaging and transportation logistics solutions. Key imperatives driving business improvement at Distribution/Logistics companies include:
- Enhanced customer experience, and alignment of customer expectations with perfect-order indicators
- Optimization of operating efficiencies and reduction of operating costs
- Scalable management of increasingly more complex product offerings
- Optimization of on-hand and available-to-promise inventory levels
- Improved agility of the supply chain and global distribution/logistics methods
