Supply Chain Control Tower services at a glance

Unlike traditional freight management software, control towers collect information and data from suppliers, vendors and logistics service touchpoints to provide our teams with real-time insight across the entire supply chain. Coupled with our proprietary technology stack, we can deliver the analysis to help our customers make more informed decisions to optimise supply chain activities.

Visibility

With the ability to view the entire supply chain from beginning to end, we have easy access to all the data necessary to make informed, smart decisions immediately and effectively.

Adding value

Enhanced visibility allows us to generate value across the supply chain, reduce complexity, ensure the efficient flow of goods and prevent supply chain disruption.

Sustainability

With access to real-time data, we can maximise vehicle utilisation and optimise route planning to reduce transport miles, clash emissions and support sustainability goals.

Predictive comparisons

By analysing similar supply chain processes coupled with AI and neural learning, potential problems can be predicted and eliminated before they happen.

Smart workflows

Our data analysis will ensure your workflows are optimised for efficiency and reliability, with the ability to react intelligently to events in real time.

Collaborative intelligence

The ability to give all members of your supply chain access to the data relevant to them enables you to maximise efficiency and minimise the chance of confusion or delays.

What are Control Tower services?

For many manufacturers and retailers, visibility across their supply chains remains a top priority to avoid disruption. However, organisations can’t optimise supply chain performance to deliver on customer expectations without end-to-end, real-time visibility. That’s where our supply chain control towers services come in.

We integrate data from multiple sources and use our industry-leading technology and operational tools to provide complete end-to-end visibility across multiple departments and divisions and transport modes. Then we analyse the data to allow businesses to be agile, responsive, more efficient to create operational and environmental benefits.

Can you use data to improve inventory, stock and packaging?

Control towers can provide the analysis to help you optimise stock control, reduce inventory and deliver financial benefits. We’ve also helped global retailers improve container fill, reduce packaging and optimise carton usage. In just over 12 months, retailer M&S exceeded its planned benefit of 15% cost savings. In addition, it also realised improvements in warehousing, fully utilising two automated sites as well as configuring warehouses to deal with stock efficiently. Improved carton quality ensures the company’s commitment to send zero waste to landfill can be met by fully recycling cardboard transit packaging.
