One of the greatest challenges in logistics is maintaining good supply chain visibility through the multiple providers and carriers. Outsourcing logistics can help bridge the gap and improve visibility.
According to KPMG’s 2014 Global Manufacturing Outlook Report, it states that 40% of supply chains lack visibility across their operations.
Poor visibility leads to shipment delays and processing disruptions that affect revenue and business relations.
Outsourcing logistics back-end processes in real-time increases visibility of operations. Entering load orders, invoice processing, and other data entry tasks can help decrease workload pressure allowing more focus on improving customer service.
