Cost Containment Through Integration & Automation
Transportation spend is at an all time high and
growing. The
statistics are staggering. Today, transportation accounts for
63% of total logistics expenditures which for many industries equates
to at least 5% of total revenue. Couple this with sky rocketing fuel
prices, capacity constraints, rising interest rates, higher insurance
premiums, and a lack of visibility
into global logistics process and
you’ve got a serious challenge to the bottom line.
As the world becomes flatter and the vision of one global
economy
draws more near, managing transportation processes has never
been more crucial.
Let’s face it, everyone negotiates the best carrier rates possible,
but what happens after that? The complexity of multiple carrier systems,
paper-based processes, lack of visibility and decision support leads
to errors, uncontrolled transportation spending, and delivery breakdowns. Even
if carriers meet all of your expectations, fragmented internal processes
can cause you to miss your customer’s expectations.
Multi-Carrier Shipping Management
The proliferation of carrier services and technology have created
cost and process control challenges for most companies in the business
of delivering goods to customers. Agile’s suite of Multi-Carrier
Shipping Management solutions eliminates the complexity of managing
disparate carrier-supplied systems. Whether you need a point
or enterprise solution, we can help you automate routing, rating,
shipping, labeling, documentation, and tracking for all major package
and freight carriers.
Desktop
Shipping Management
How much control do you have over
how employees ship material from their desktops, from home offices,
or from the road? Are
they trained to select the most cost-effective carrier service? Are
they authorized to use these services? Do you know what they
are shipping, to whom, and how you will account for these costs? Agile
can help you put the controls in place to ensure efficient, accurate,
and cost-effective carrier management.
