Welcome to Data2Logistics


Thanks for your interest in Data2Logistics; a bit on who we
are:

Data2Logistics enhances freight transportation operations
through business intelligence system data mining, helping meet goals for cost
reduction and improved oversight. We provide focused resources to support
projects relating to pooled purchasing, RFP management, carrier negotiations,
transportation management system software, inbound routing, and network
analysis, along with informed audit and freight payment services. Our global
reach provides ability to support all modes of transportation, optimizing
logistics operations domestically and globally.

Data2Logistics assists Global 1000, Fortune 1000 and SMB
companies to reduce their shipping costs by providing an outsourced opportunity
to efficiently process, audit, account code and pay their freight at a
significantly lower cost than internal processes. Clients also benefit from the
identification of more carrier overcharges than their internal systems can
identify. We provide actionable information to better manage and control
transportation cost, and supports clients with their carrier bid preparation,
benchmarking, proposal analysis and negotiation. As a single source of
information for all modes of transportation on a global basis, Data2Logistics
identifies and reports opportunities for savings and the reasons for variances
in trends. Savings opportunities can be derived from modal shifts,
consolidation of shipments, improved carrier utilization, and adjustment to
shipment size, as well as monitoring accessorial costs. Reviewing over $15
billion worth of freight bills from thousands of carriers annually, Data2Logistics
provides a single-source solution results in savings averaging 5%-15% of
product shipping expenditures per year.

Also meet-up with us on Twitter, LinkedIn and Xing. Looking
forward to your foresight!

Smarts for Supply Chain Knowledge Management

Knowledge management is one of those terms defined by whose book you read last. In supply chain realities, it guides better business decisions, going beyond the typical freight bill processing services by presenting data as actionable information. Today, most of this info is delivered via cloud-based, intuitive, user-driven systems. They eliminate maverick spend, identify missed consolidations, provide alerts when there are changes in trends, while enabling you to see all cost components, not just the total freight charge.
A few more functions include:
             Providing timely access to actionable information
             Reporting details of all accessorial and premium freight charges
             Highlighting opportunities for service type and mode shifts
             Identifying cost associated with dimensional charges
             Utilizing best practices industry benchmarks for comparison analysis
             Creating customized, ad-hoc and standard reports for data analysis and colleague collaboration.
Knowledge management, in the supply chain realm anyway, is in Data2Logistics’ wheelhouse. If this supply chain business vision would beneficial you, contact us.
