Don’t Let the Unknown Negatively Impact Your Supply Chain Operations

Supply chain operations are more complex than ever today, with multiple inflection points that can make or break an on-time delivery to your customers. Experienced supply chain executives understand that even the most robust supply chain operations will come under pressure due to external forces that are out of their control.

That’s why so many choose to invest in a global control tower – a single, robust command center that aggregates multiple data sources to track ongoing shipments, deliver timely updates and warnings, and even enable real-time actions to avoid or minimize shipping disruptions.

IntelliTrans Global Supply Chain Control Tower FAQs

What is the Control Tower in the Supply Chain?

The control tower is a system that pulls together information and data resources to provide a comprehensive command center that delivers a real-time or near real-time view of an organization’s supply chain activities. There are many components to a control tower that may span multiple systems. The control tower aggregates this data and leverages the information to create a comprehensive view of shipments across multiple transportation modes. Control towers identify and mitigate risk by flagging irregular activities and delays for mitigation. They keep customers informed of pending shipments, and track and analyze shipment routes and carriers to assess effectiveness.

How Can a Global Control Tower Impact the Supply Chain?

Using a Global Control Tower to manage and monitor your supply chain activities allows you to prevent disruptions and delays in meeting your on-time delivery commitments to your customers. This risk identification and mitigation comes from the ability to view shipments across multiple transportation modes as well as the ability to leverage predictive analytics to anticipate disruption and take action to prevent it. It puts you at a distinct advantage over competitors who lack this visibility. Your shipments will be on time up to 20% more often, and in the event of unavoidable disruption, you will be able to alert your customer to schedule changes often as soon as they occur.
