Next Generation Logistics Planning...

Unlock 12% to 18% logistics Cost per Unit (LCPU) reductions beyond the usual impacts of traditional S&OP and S&OE tools like TMS.

Today’s logistics supply chains demand more than traditional “in-week” shipment scheduling and execution, visibility, and rate management. Today’s logistics supply chains require modern, AI solutions to balance margin and growth that unlock incremental innovation value. Join transformational leaders on their journey to move beyond today’s siloed traditional transportation and logistics execution solution approaches to realize a future powered by autonomous supply chains.

During this seminar, logistics professionals will learn how a next-generation TMS approach closes today’s planning process gap between traditional sales and operational planning (S&OP) and transportation management systems (TMS). Think of this innovation as S&OP for logistics and transportation. Sales, Logistics, Operations Planning, and Execution (SLOPE) supercharges traditional S&OP and TMS solutions while unlocking 12% to 18% logistics cost per unit reductions. Quest 2 will build upon Quest 1’s journey to establish a continuous state of “golden” logistics master data as the basis for advanced logistics planning. Seminar participants can expect to have an opportunity to actively engage, ask questions, and network with peers and other like-minded professionals.

Pre-Registration is required as there is limited seating availability.
