The challenges of digitization in load carrier management

Supply chain digitization can profoundly impact your bottom line and is critical to the success of businesses in many different industries. More than 85% of C-level executives believe digital efforts will improve cash flow and reduce receivables within days.

The challenges of digitization in load carrier management

In this article, we explore why digitizing load carrier management processes remains a challenge at a time when everything else in the world has digitized, and then dive into why the benefits of digitizing load carrier management processes are worth the effort to overcome these challenges.

Digitizing load carrier management processes is easier said than done. It requires more than the ability to move from paper to electronic formats or to find and send information online. Today's supply chain teams must evolve and adapt to the current supply chain environment, where new technologies play a fundamental role.

The 3 major challenges

The supply chain industry has 3 major challenges โ€“ agility/capacity, sustainability and visibility. However companies in the supply chain often have underdeveloped digital capabilities, they also often lack of technological know-how and collaborative innovation mindset caused by:

  • Complexity of the supply chain system and underlying processes
  • Lack of resources including skilled resources
  • Slow technology adoption and resistance to change
  • Data protection

Digitization can help manage the supply chain

Supply chain digitization is the solution to the ongoing challenges and obstacles disrupting global supply chains. As the industry faces increasing pressure, consumer demand, and widespread disruption, these technologies ensure that companies in the supply chain can streamline processes and better serve customers.

Managing load carriers through a single source of truth platform, enables companies in the supply chain to gain one overview of all their load carrier items. Having insights and overview of load carrier management enables companies to reduce waste of lost items, work on their sustainability objectives, increase efficiency and collaborate with supply chain partners.

Supply chain digitization can profoundly impact your bottom line and is critical to the success of businesses in many different industries. More than 85% of C-level executives believe digital efforts will improve cash flow and reduce receivables within days.

The evolutionary process

The difference between RTI Blockchain and other load carrier management systems?

Where other systems work with a transaction copy (to collaborate or share data with your supply chain partners), the RTI Blockchain approach ensures a single truth. Which can be coordinated directly with your supply chain partner. Individually, or in collaboration with your partner. One single source of truth to gain one overview of all your returnable transport items.

In need of process optimization?

Have processes become so complex that a separate process has been created for each single item? You are not unique in that. With our expertise, we bring your own processes back to simplicity. Focused on your process, separate from the design of RTI Blockchain. Get in touch with our team to learn more about our approach: https://www.rtiblockchain.com/contact

Responsibility in the Supply Chain?

Responsibility in the Supply Chain?

Software and processes work hand in hand but are also often undermined by practices and agreements that have been brought to life based on (historically acquired) agreements. Sales-driven companies need to keep doing that, but they also need to concentrate on what is inside whilst serving this customer to the maximum. And to what extent does it make sense for both parties? Besides revenue, do both parties consider (administrative) costs as well? As the cost will be covered by someone, the customer may receive the bill for these hidden costs.
