Traditional methods of engaging with the supply chain have led to many challenges across the entire Supply Chain Management (SCM) value chain. The pandemic has exposed various vulnerabilities in the supply chain, such as remote work mismanagement and single-source dependencies, making organizations realize increased hidden costs and logistical challenges.
We believe that visibility into transportation management processes can enhance operational efficiency, improve risk management, and reduce time-to-market. Real-time transportation visibility is an emerging technology that provides real-time location and status updates of all supply chain assets.
Multiple start-ups have emerged in recent years to aid real-time transportation visibility. These start-ups are coming up with innovative solutions to provide better end-to-end tracking and asset monitoring. The function’s growing importance has driven capital infusion by investors and acquisitions by technology players.
