Logistics challenges without an integrated Kuehne Nagel connector

  • Manual and inefficient booking processes

Coordinating freight shipments by telephone or e-mail is time-consuming and lacks traceability. Each request, each modification, each confirmation is a manual task that slows down your operations and increases the risk of misunderstandings or errors.

  • Creating transport documents: a repetitive task

Completing a consignment note or other freight documents for each shipment is a tedious task. It represents hours of low value-added work for your logistics teams, which could be allocated to more strategic missions.

  • Lack of overall visibility on transport flows

Without direct integration, tracking your shipments requires you to consult Kuehne + Nagel’s myKN portal. You don’t have a centralized, consolidated view of all your flows, which makes performance management and proactive communication with your customers extremely difficult.

  • Information silos hamper decision-making

Transport data is isolated in the carrier’s system, disconnected from your order and inventory data. This makes it difficult to analyze profitability by product or customer, optimize costs and make informed decisions to improve your supply chain.
