Presenters:
Susan Evans, Managing Director, Tompkins International
Bill Loftis, Senior Principal, Tompkins International

Tompkins Associates' global transportation experts Bill Loftis and Susan Evans reveal a new cross-functional solution enhancing inbound transportation management. Discover how the best transportation managers are truly optimizing their inbound flow of goods.

Transport management -- and its key processes of shipment planning and execution -- suffers from limited availability of information about product orders, visibility into plans from buyers or customers, and constraints in the market.

Transportation managers often see orders too late to make changes. With a little foresight, better ordering and logistics plans can be made.

What if you could identify better ordering patterns that would satisfy inventory requirements and optimize transportation – before tendering shipments to carriers? What if you had complete visibility on product (or service) orders? What about complete visibility on transport constraints, delivery requirements, or financial targets? Could you manage the movement of freight better?

By watching this Supply Chaincast, you will gain new strategies, practices and technologies to truly optimize product movement and flow while minimizing costs and delivering maximum service. You will take away ideas and information about new cross-functional methods for planning and executing inbound orders that will improve both inventory and transportation performance.
