Empties Management

With SupplyOn, all container movements are mapped and traceable for all parties involved via a central platform. By connecting all plants, suppliers, and transport service providers, the actual container inventories become transparent for all stakeholders and can be continuously optimized. Defined KPIs can be used to analyze the performance of the individual partners, the dwell time of the containers, and the history of stock levels. This allows detection of vulnerabilities, avoiding out-of-stock situations, and optimizing balances.

Key features:

1. Reconciliation of inventories, balances, bookings, dwell times and account statements
2. Integration of data using industrial standards (web services or direct EDI connection)
3. Individual reports based on defined KPIs
4. Mapping of all container movements, both within the plant and with suppliers, customers and carriers
5. Definition of stock limits for container accounts
6. Alerts in case follow-up deliveries or empties pick-ups have to be triggered (push concept)
7. Possibility for suppliers to order required loading equipment (pull concept)
