No business does business alone. 

We are all part of an interdependent ecosystem that we call a supply chain.  Successful execution of a supply chain relies on effective collaboration among all of the businesses and partners along the chain. 

Picking up from some recent posts, logistics visibility is essential to a functioning supply chain that keeps each business along the chain successful in fulfilling their customer promises. 

When tracking outbound shipments, logistics visibility enables you to avoid disruption to your customer deliveries, and provide delivery dates that you and your customers can depend on. 

Now consider the other side of that coin, when you are the customer.

When you need reliable Purchase Order delivery dates for inbound shipments from your suppliers, you are putting your success in the hands of your suppliers and carriers.  Your ability to meet production schedules, avoid stock-outs, and get your product to your customers on-time and in-full is dependent on your ability to avoid or react to inbound shipping disruptions. 

Having real-time logistics visibility into inbound deliveries helps to:

  • Respond to volatility with agility
  • Collaborate more effectively with suppliers and carriers
  • Reduce planned and unplanned transportation costs and inventory
  • Meet internal and external customer expectations

Join SAP and SAP strategic partner LeverX to see a demonstration of how inbound logistics visibility can enable insight-to-action that links logistics execution with procurement and planning.
