Logistics, Transportation & Travel
Logistics, transportation & travel are one of the world's largest industry groups. Globalization, intercompany integration, mergers and acquisitions have created large and complex setups. For this reason, many companies on the rise will reach a point where the existing information structure makes it extremely difficult to create a consolidated overview (for example, of profitability analysis). It will also make it difficult to use relevant data to drive fact-based decisions (for example, for tactical pricing). What’s more, with freight rates under major pressure, the need to optimize company processes is critical.
Platon’s consulting services can give you a stronger IT-platform with cross-functional data management and consistent real time information. We help you modernize your existing systems, which give you a line of directions for treating the data.
