Data is generated at every stage of the logistics process. When integrated, organised and managed properly data tells you how your business is performing. More importantly, data can be used to predict future outcomes. And ultimately what you need to do to get to where you need to be. We call this data driven logistics.
The great thing about your data is that you don’t need to invest huge amounts of time and money in order to start out on your data driven journey.
Cost effective business intelligence tools will quickly show how you’re doing against your company and department KPIs.
Predictive analytics and data science systems offer more advanced functionality such as demand forecasting, dynamic pricing and route planning.
And, for those with more complex requirements, data can be used to power decision support systems that support strategic and operational work at all levels of the organisation.
