Logistics & Supply Chain Technology
Some of the most common supply chain technologies include:
- Enterprise resource planning (ERP) software: ERP software integrates all of a company's business functions, including accounting, manufacturing, and sales, into a single system. This can help to improve efficiency and visibility across the supply chain.
- Warehouse management systems (WMS): WMS software helps to track inventory levels, manage picking and packing, and optimize warehouse operations.
- Transportation management systems (TMS): TMS software helps to plan and track shipments, manage carrier relationships, and optimize freight costs.
- Cloud-based supply chain solutions: Cloud-based supply chain solutions provide businesses with a way to access and share data across the supply chain in real time. This can help to improve visibility and collaboration.
- Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML): AI and ML are being used to automate tasks, improve decision-making, and predict future demand.
- The Internet of Things (IoT): IoT sensors can be used to track the location of goods, monitor equipment, and collect data on environmental conditions.
