New system provides visibility across supply chain
A new service from Isotrak is said to provide real-time visibility of third-party logistics and supplier fleets. According to the company, the system is designed to extend fleet efficiencies and savings across the whole supply chain.
3iS FleetVision creates a single, fully measurable view of the fleet – not only a company’s private fleet, but its 3rd party suppliers as well.
“This is new territory and Isotrak has developed a solution that allows businesses to manage all the moving parts as a single entity,” said Alex Ognjanac, vice president of sales and marketing for Isotrak. “We’re at the forefront of a new breakthrough in supply chain management.”
3iS FleetVision feeds into Isotrak’s fleet management system, ATMSi, and brings additional value through:
- Measuring plan vs. actual within ATMSi’s job management capability
- Monitoring on-time departures, arrivals and advanced notice on true ETAs to both warehouses and vendor locations
- Taking into account all inbound and outbound deliveries in the entire supply chain
Customers can set KPIs (key performance indicators) to actively monitor real-time performance against the plan – in real time, by departure, arrival and ETA. When the plan goes off track, alerts are sent out, notifying transportation managers in real-time so that they can make the necessary changes and minimize disruption.
Isotrak has also created the 3iS FleetVision Certified Supplier Program to streamline the convergence of a company’s private fleet and its third party supplier fleets.
The system can integrate with most GPS/fleet management systems.
