Terminals and Warehouses: Operational Challenges Impede Customer Satisfaction

Suppliers often outsource terminal and warehouse functions to Third Party Logistics Providers (3PLs). These partners store materials in a network of terminals and warehouses to maximize distribution and storage efficiencies. 3PL networks can become quite complex, with multiple communication streams and growing operational challenges. Ineffective manual processes often result in costly delays and errors, which ultimately leads to customer service issues and dissatisfaction:

• Excess and out-of-sync inventory levels
  • Lost sales
  • Excess working capital
• Error-prone manual order management
• Delayed shipment and receipt confirmations
• Technology and process overload

Meeting these diverse challenges demands a robust infrastructure solution that can unify, integrate and streamline business processes between producers, terminals and warehouses, carriers, and customers - regardless of company size, location or industry.
