Interconnected transport - logistics company collapsed road

Annual "double eleven" war again Ran Zhanhuo, electricity and logistics will again be placed in the "spotlight" under. How to control the warehouse explosion, how to reduce the rate of delayed delivery, how to reduce the leakage of cargo, death and so on ...... even for a single service quality and standardization has been significantly improved courier companies, still feel pressure, then, on top of the courier industry Market size is far more than the number of times the courier market enterprise transport market, logistics companies which are faced with the dilemma it?

In fact, the Chinese economy has entered a new development stage of normal today, many logistics companies have felt unprecedented pressure, many industry entrepreneurs have laments business more difficult: on the one hand, many customers choose self-built electric providers warehouse, compressed to storage + transport services for third-party logistics business of living space; on the other hand, the owner of the high demand for logistics services business efficiency and quality of services are increasingly normalized. In this regard, the logistics industry renowned experts, Chongqing fine line Station Supply Chain Management Ltd. CEO Mr. Jiang Xiao ice accurately summarizes the reality of third-party logistics enterprises are facing: This dual pressures of business and management in the final analysis is the logistics enterprises from extensive mode quick access to products and services segments + type pattern produced by the "labor pains", but this is the logistics industry to re-shuffle, the driving force and eliminating the inferior advantages, for third-party logistics enterprises, must take the initiative to seek transformation, can we truly find breaking way.

The pain of transition: "picky" customers and "hard pipe" supply chain

Shippers are increasingly demanding enterprise logistics managers most frequent "Tucao point." With the concept of the Internet's enormous impact traditional industries, companies increasingly value the owner of the transport process transparent and globally, it is desirable to obtain comparable courier experience and careful planning in logistics costs and supplier assessment. This demand Forced third-party logistics enterprises must provide more leading tools and services to make the logistics chain efficiency and experience to achieve the best state.

At the same time, third-party logistics companies on the downstream supply chain management challenges so many managers feel equally thorny. The industry generally believes that the logistics industry, decentralized, market structure long chain or long-term existence. Logistics business model of a single, low level of information, making information on the entire chain can not be connected to each other, third-party logistics companies can not grasp the timely and accurate downstream supply chain, it is difficult to implement effective management, it is difficult to meet the upstream business owner service requirements.
In addition, the actual operations management among logistics companies is difficult to grasp the implementation of the downstream carriers. This is like the transportation process in the "black box", it is only when a problem occurs while the owner complained upstream, they did not realize a problem. Even more angry is that after telephone communication for many exceptions, because the lack of conclusive credentials and difficult to identify. With oTMS Yan, co-founder and chief operating officer, then paragraph summary, when timeliness and authenticity of the downstream transport of information are difficult to guarantee, the management of a multi-level supply chain would really impossible mission (mission impossible) a.

Transition path: the whole chain synergies to enhance efficiency, improve data-based management.

The dilemma is not difficult to break. In the new "Internet +" era, the Internet + new mode of transport for the transformation and upgrading of logistics enterprises to provide the most powerful tools and paths. oTMS successfully developed the first in the industry based on "SaaS platform + mobile App" mode of community-based transport collaboration platform, third-party logistics companies can free invite shippers, carriers, drivers and consignees to connect to a business network, forming based on the core business of a community-based collaborative platform transport. Among logistics companies are in this network, to dialogue with the upstream owner through SaaS platform, to participate in the bidding order to get new orders, but also the real-time management of transport processes downstream suppliers, so in a coordinated manner to improve efficiency and to the owner of the enterprise quality of service.
In addition, another significant change in the whole chain of large collaborative response is to enhance the ability of the abnormal situation. Logistics companies to the first time abnormal situation, then take the initiative to solve problems, rather than to be customer complaints after investigation and accountability. Of course, because all the information is displayed on a unified platform, before downstream suppliers will not be able to pass the buck and other phenomena occur again.

At the same time, data management allows the management of transport process toward intelligent and standardization. Currently, medium-sized logistics enterprises generally have their own transport management system, but the system only for its own internal processes and data management, while not readily collected and processed outside the enterprise-wide business data on upstream and downstream chain. oTMS The platform uses the true meaning of the "Internet + Mobile Internet" mode, it can transport real execution data on the whole chain is reflected in a unified platform, while at the logistics companies that transport platform to follow the implementation of the whole, grasp the real and effective information, rather than waiting for transport after the completion of the data entered into the system manually.

When critical business data transparency and put to good use after unnecessary human disturbance will be removed, third-party logistics management on downstream data carriers will have to follow, and these downstream carriers for real performance feedback This information will help them further optimize the supplier structure, and well-documented KPI carriers establish win-win cooperation. On the other hand, this is the third party the opportunity to demonstrate the value of enterprise logistics business owner in front of their own, in a fair competitive environment in its core competencies will be fully demonstrated. This is like Taobao sellers, like credit data accumulated on the platform the better, the more likely to win market opportunities.
Conclusion

Ebb Tide beginning to see gold. In today's era of change, for the third-party logistics companies, or initiative, or forced out. Visionary business will certainly choose the former, with the "Internet + transport," the innovative management tools to further cultivate internal strength, enhance core competitiveness, thus achieving long-term sustainable development.
