Shipment

This Accelerator allows you to assess and improve your ability to deliver your customers on-time, in-full.

This Accelerator will split your shipments in three categories:

• Ready for Pickup: All the shipments that are still to be shipped
  • Estimate expected shipment duration based on past shipments
  • Define pickup priorities
  • Identify bottlenecks
  • Benefit from an ideal pickup workload plan for the upcoming days to meet delivery promise
  • Drill at shipment level of detail and with a single click, open any shipment in your source application to take immediate actions
• In Transit: All the shipments that were shipped but not delivered yet
  • Estimate what volume of shipments will be delivered late or on-time
  • Benefit from an analysis of the underlying reasons for your late shipments: “late pickup” or “longer shipment than usual”
• Completed: All the shipments that were delivered
  • Assess your ability to deliver to your customers on-time
  • Breakdown this performance by carrier, route, centre or transportation mode to find outliers and patterns
  • Pinpoint problematic routes
  • Identify the root causes of your late shipments and where to focus your efforts
