In an economic environment that rewards efficiency, making use of data and technology is critical to success. Nearly every industry has seen a move away from its established paradigms and a focus on doing things in a global context. Innovators and early adopters have been the biggest beneficiaries of this, while many companies that remain stuck in their ways struggle to catch up.

Transportation and logistics are no exception. Today, your success in these fields comes down to how effectively you leverage technology and big data to make informed choices about who you partner with and how you run your business.

    At Rockfarm, we can provide data analytics support. Developing accessible, long-term data solutions is essential for supply chains. There are a few drivers of data warehouse development, including:

    • Access to business intelligence
    • Historical intelligence
    • Information access and informed decision-making
    • Increased data consistency and quality
    • Growth with process visibility and efficiency

    If a shipper has deployed several ERPs, a TMS can normalize data to provide a definition of measurement that can be used by the logistics teams. With this view, your organization can illustrate the performance and cost metrics across business units, divisions, or locations to create a seamless overview of the supply chain. After data extracts and data mapping are integrated, a Business Intelligence (BI) tool can define this data in forms that are helpful for the logistics team.

    The goal of analyzing our client’s supply chain is to reduce cost and improve inefficiencies.   This can be done in a number of ways but can include:

    • Place actionable data into the hands of key decision-makers faster than other systems.
    • Illustrate your data analysis with enhanced visuals for reporting.
    • Uncover impactful trends and correlations beneath the surface of your dataset.
    • Deliver customized reports and easily execute intricate data inspections.

    With our BI tool, you can identify opportunities, and risks and even make improvements to keep your operation working efficiently. Analysis can be performed as a one-time evaluation or set up as regular reporting regarding volume, performance, improvement, and even financials. BI software allows your logistics team to analyze and review the data, and there are several BI tools that provide supply chain visibility for small, medium, and large organizations alike.
