We all love data. We all love our technology. Sometimes, we have too much of it. The challenge is to figure out how to turn all the data into usable information.
The most recent and applicable example is our yard management project:
- Connect end-to-end, both from the manufacturing facilities and warehouse operations team for the empty trailers
- Create visibility to inbound raw materials
- Looking for specific SKUs and line items that are coming in inbound
The goal is to manage the yards more efficiently.
