INDUSTRY / SUPPLY CHAIN

Supply chain visibility, without the manual data assembly.

We automate the tracking, documentation, and exception handling that keeps supply chains moving. Freight coordination, customs documentation, supplier performance, and demand forecasting inputs, handled without manual intervention.

55% reduction in manual freight coordination time

Freight tracking and shipment visibility

Shipment status is pulled from carrier APIs and freight forwarder portals into a single view. Delays trigger alerts to relevant stakeholders automatically. The operations team stops chasing status updates and starts managing exceptions.

Customs documentation preparation and filing

Export and import documentation is assembled from purchase order and shipment data. HS code classification is suggested based on product data. Documents are formatted to destination-country requirements. Manual document preparation time drops significantly.

Supplier performance monitoring and communication

On-time delivery, quality acceptance rates, and lead time adherence are tracked per supplier automatically. Suppliers falling below threshold receive automated performance notifications. Escalations route to the procurement team with context.

Demand signal aggregation and inventory positioning

Sales data, open orders, and historical patterns are combined to generate demand signals for procurement planning. Reorder recommendations surface in the planning tool rather than in a manually maintained spreadsheet.

Purchase order management and three-way matching

Purchase orders are generated from approved requisitions, tracked through supplier acknowledgement, goods receipt, and invoice receipt. Three-way matching runs automatically. Discrepancies route to the appropriate approver with the specific mismatch highlighted.

Trade compliance and sanctions screening

Suppliers, customers, and transaction counterparties are screened against sanctions lists at the point of onboarding and on a rolling basis. Matches trigger a compliance review workflow. Clean records clear automatically.

STEP 1

Supply chain data audit

We map all data sources: ERP, TMS, WMS, carrier portals, and supplier systems. We identify where data is siloed, where manual assembly is required, and where the highest error rates occur.

STEP 2

Integration architecture

We design integrations across your supply chain systems. Carrier APIs, freight forwarder connections, supplier portals, and internal ERP are connected in a single data layer.

STEP 3

Phased build and testing

We start with the highest-volume exception-generating process and build outward. Testing uses real transaction data in a staging environment before any automation touches live operations.

STEP 4

Exception management and optimization

Post-go-live, we run monthly reviews of exception rates and root causes. We continuously push the exception threshold lower as the automation learns the normal patterns in your supply chain.
