project44 has announced significant enhancements to its platform, Movement, that simplify multimodal visibility and help customers maximise carrier data quality.
The supply chain visibility platform company now delivers greater business value by streamlining some of the most complex scenarios facing shippers and logistics service providers (LSPs) today.
“While many providers offer basic modal visibility, shippers adopting these solutions find themselves still grappling with costly blind spots as shipments transition between modes and carriers,” says Jett McCandless, Founder and CEO of project44.
“Poor data quality from carriers only exacerbates the issue, resulting in hundreds of billions of dollars in avoidable supply chain costs. project44’s cutting-edge, machine learning-powered solutions provide the sophisticated insights organisations need to transform their supply chain from a cost centre into a competitive advantage.”
Shippers and LSPs struggle to gain visibility of shipments across modes and carriers – notes project44 – leading to reactive exception management and inability to plan effectively.
project44’s new capabilities address these challenges by connecting customers to every carrier and freight forwarder, delivering unmatched shipment visibility from door-to-door, connected to orders with line item and SKU-level granularity.
“By definition, airfreight is time sensitive, but visibility has historically been difficult to achieve because shipments move and change hands rapidly,” says Curt Metzler at Alcon, a multinational vision care products provider.
“Extended Air Visibility from project44 gives us the real-time tracking capabilities we need to provide a great customer experience every time.”
Enhancements to project44’s comprehensive suite of visibility products include:
- Extended Visibility: Merges data from carriers and forwarders to deliver complete visibility from door to door, eliminating costly blind spots at interchanges so shippers can proactively manage inventory in transit and meet order due dates while minimising manual effort
- OTR Visibility: Expanded full truckload (FTL) and less-than-truckload (LTL) network coverage in the world’s largest road freight market by volume, including the only compliant solution in the market to enable cross-border data transfer, giving companies the market to enable cross-border data transfer, giving companies manufacturing or sourcing product in China complete visibility from factory to consumer door
- Shared visibility: Lets brand owners and LSPs automatically share their project44 visibility experience with customers and partners for better collaboration without manual activities like phone calls and emails
