E-Commerce Distribution
While e-commerce is booming, increasing consumer demand does not always translate into more profit. The e-commerce business faces increasing last-mile delivery costs and limited capacity. Our e-commerce solutions use the world’s most intelligent optimizers to help you to lower fulfillment costs, improve delivery capacity and provide a stellar customer experience.
Balance costs and operational efficiency in last-mile delivery
Your delivery capacity is limited but customer expectations are almost limitless. To meet them, speed and convenience are key. Customers want convenient time slots for home deliveries, and they expect to be informed about the delivery time. How can you increase “first time right deliveries” while keeping costs under control? Our solutions for e-Commerce distribution help you find the right balance and successfully scale your e-commerce sales.
Last-mile delivery management software for end-to-end visibility and control
Our software combines time slot booking with planning and execution functionalities. Every time a customer books a time slot, it is added to the schedule to reserve capacity. Our optimizer continuously improves the schedule to increase capacity for new time slots and decrease transportation costs.
Our six-step framework:
- Predict: Use your historical data to forecast demand and estimate the capacity required.
- Prepare: Use your forecast information to simulate and model your upcoming operations.
- Plan: Give customers the opportunity to book their own time slot; plan & schedule daily operations.
- Execute: Get a real-time overview and control of the plan’s realization (control-tower concept).
- Monitor: Be in control of your operations with transparency over all operational data & KPIs.
- Improve: Use intelligent analytics apps to improve your business in a continuous manner.
