Optimizing product delivery through multiple channels has become exponentially more intricate in an omni-channel environment. A constant flow of disruptive events and trade disputes have added another layer of complexity, turning critical hand offs into frequent failure points. Labor shortages in transportation have fueled an increase in total cost. Lastly, technology and automation continue to advance rapidly. Adopting the latest technology is essential but doing so while keeping the lights on is challenging. Overall, managing a warehousing and transportation operation has become significantly more complex in recent years.
To optimize product delivery through all channels, it is important to design a closely connected distribution network with great real-time visibility and control. It is also important to proactively address failure points to improve reliability. GEP can assess the entire supply chain logistics network for critical hand offs. Simultaneously, we can also perform a total supply network risk analysis. This is crucial to identifying effective mitigation strategies that prepare your supply chain for disruptions.
