Pre and Post Sale Logistics
Consumer technology logistics must respond to rapid changes caused by brand-owner promotions or economic change. Delivering on time, every time against this background is hard enough.
But today’s increasingly complex product offerings make it harder still. Personalisation at the point of despatch calls for semi-manufacturing processes so that global supply platforms can create local, customised products. And the greater importance of returns makes reliable, integrated reverse logistics essential.
World-class technology logistics must be:
- Visible – clear, end-to-end visibility makes it easier to identify waste (including waiting time) and ensure orders are fulfilled
- Responsive – supply chain nodes need to be able to flex against forecast by 30-50% on a day-to-day basis
- Agile – technology supply chains typically deal with thousands of SKUs and 100 times as many customer support options. Fast product lifecycles mean they need to cope with change on a regular basis. This demands process control and staff flexibility.
