Logistics BI

Business Intelligence
Data-driven logistics can give a huge boost to the efficiency and effectiveness of your e-commerce and e-logistics. Digitalisation of sales and related logistics leads to more and more information. You want to get a grip on these processes and improve them. ‘Knowledge is power’ is increasingly true in your field. Investing in collecting, analysing and interpreting data (business intelligence) has become a hard requirement for a successful digital sales and logistics strategy. The potential of collecting data and interpreting it into usable management information, analytics, is enormous.

What is big data anyway?
Big data is unstructured data that is generated both inside and outside the organization. Big data meets three V’s: volume (the amount of data), velocity (speed of data) and variety (diversity in types and origin).

With Bi you can for example;
…assess whether your factories and DCs are still in a logical place;
…calculate what one order picking in the warehouse costs and what the lead times are;
…plan people better;
…reduce your no sales and at the same time reduce your large inventories;
…recognize trends based on social media trends to manage your production more accurately;
…make logistical forecasts or receive them within the entire logistical chain;
…manage purchasing more accurately with sales numbers;
…find out how much time it takes to manage articles in all your systems.

There are various BI applications available on the market. The right choice can only be made through a thorough package selection process.
