Harnessing the power of open and collaborative systems in logistics
In today’s rapidly evolving e-commerce landscape, the ability
to manage high-volume logistics operations efficiently and effectively is more
critical than ever. Supply chain disruptions, changing customer expectations,
and rising costs are just a few of the challenges that logistics managers face daily.
To navigate these complexities, companies are increasingly turning to
integrated technology solutions that can streamline processes, improve decision-making,
automate tasks, and enhance customer service levels.
Logistics Management Magazine and Hikvision have jointly
released a new white paper to explore the transformative power of open and
collaborative systems in logistics. The white paper shares insights into how
integrated technology ecosystems can help organizations break down data silos, improve
end-to-end visibility, and achieve significant operational efficiencies.
Disparate systems
lead to inefficiencies
In the modern logistics landscape, traditional on-premises
legacy systems often struggle to communicate with each other, resulting in data
silos, manual interventions, and poor visibility across the organization. These
issues are particularly pronounced in e- commerce, where accurate and timely
insights have become more important than ever for logistics and supply chain
operations.
Integration is the
solution
To address these and other challenges, smart organizations
are using more integrated solutions that break down silos. By connecting different
systems such as Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Warehouse Management
Systems (WMS), Transportation Management Systems (TMS), Yard Management Systems
(YMS), and Video Management Systems (VMS), companies can achieve a unified view
of their end-to-end supply chain.
Real-world
applications
The white paper provides practical examples of how integrated
logistics solutions have helped e-commerce and high-volume logistics parks. For
instance, integrated parcel tracking solutions have enabled warehouses to
determine responsibility for damage and lost items, reducing the cost of
compensation. Yard management systems, integrated with transportation management
platforms, use AI to recognize license plates and container numbers, ensuring
the orderly movement of vehicles at the gate, loading dock, and yard.
Discover how open and collaborative systems help organizations
adapt to the ever-evolving logistics landscape, ensuring a competitive edge in today’s
fast-paced market.
