LOGISTICS AND SUPPLY CHAIN APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT

Logistics and supply chain solutions

While the types of services our clients provide range widely, there are a few common threads in the work we do. We help our clients fight back against fulfillment delays, near-zero margins and limited supply of goods.

WE KNOW LOGISTICS AND SUPPLY CHAIN APPS

We’re in the business of addressing human needs through technology.

Part of the “Amazon-effect” that we speak so often about is the demand consumers have today for near immediate fulfillment of purchases. Combining the Amazon-effect with today’s pressures on our post-pandemic supply chain, businesses in the logistics industry are faced with a trifecta of challenges: near-immediate fulfillment demands, limited supply of goods, and rising costs of labor.  As our clients look to increase margins, technology becomes a compelling tool to use for improvement.

Here are the three common themes in why an exec in the logistics or supply chain industry would consider a custom app:

Variety of Approaches

The solutions our clients are seeking range from inventory management to asset tracking to fleet management and every type of business process in between - complex product catalogs, customer service, invoicing and order fulfillment.  These days, better leveraging data analytics and predictive insights provide the cutting edge most of our clients need in order to grow and thrive.

Apps for Analytics

It’s no longer enough to just be able to sell and fulfill an order.  In today’s market, ,you need to be able to understand where your customer came from, why they bought what they did, and where in the fulfillment process you can eliminate inefficiencies and the associated profit leakages. The apps we build for our clients most often integrate with best-in-class predictive insights tools.

Supporting Corporate Data Teams

We are typically supporting data teams that are staffed within our clients’ organizations. These teams are incredible at making meaning out of large data sets, and it’s our job to help design apps that get exactly the data they need in order to level up their organizations. Our clients’ data teams rely on custom apps to gather the right amount of data as well as visualize and present back the data insights they put together for their companies.

custom software development that serves those who serve us

From information to insights to intelligence.

With the recent innovations in artificial intelligence, our clients are starting to find ways to improve their data analytics - gaining wisdom from their data that was previously inaccessible.

Building a custom app allows our clients to not only clean up their data (both from a collection and a storage standpoint), but also collect more volume and more varied data sets than before. Once our clients have a clean set of data to work with, we are able to help our clients think through what types of insights they want/need to gather in order to grow most efficiently.  From that conversation, we help our clients build custom reports and apply artificial intelligence tools where appropriate.

This transition from information to insights to intelligence requires a blend of experts in design, development and data analytics. You first have to design an app that users want to use - usage of your application means accurate, consistent and streamlined data collection. Second, thinking through how you will collect, store and analyze your data so it’s efficient and meaningful requires thoughtful architecture and database design. Finally, combining all data sources with an eye toward what kind of business decisions need to be made helps to ensure reporting actually supports decisions rather than just piling on more information.

Understanding the difference between information and intelligence is the key element to successful design, as well as realizing that technology exists to serve the business (not the other way around).
