eCommerce Logistics – The virtualized outbound
As shipping volumes increase, so do possible booking and consolidation errors. Search efforts and administrative processes increase rapidly as well. In order to economically optimize the handling processes in outbound logistics, it is essential to automate and virtualize manual workflows in order to achieve sustainable competitive advantages.
The Digital Twin allows workflow automation in addition to real-time process tracing. With a digitized forklift fleet, you are able to organize your outbound process scanner free as well as automatically generated, incl. orchestrated transport jobs. Real-time-based loading instructions and systemic consolidation of goods simplify time-consuming manual handling. Event triggers enrich processes with the following possibilities: e.g. automatically triggering subsequent steps such as creation of the delivery bill, forwarding agent pick-up order, printing shipping labels, invoicing, customer notifications of shipping dispatch, checking goods delivery at the correct gate as well as many others.
