Solution provides guidance on the likely timeliness and condition of a planned shipment before it departs
Everstream Analytics announced that its Supply Chain Risk Management solution is now available on SAP Store, the online marketplace for SAP and partner offerings. Everstream’s solution integrates with SAP Logistics Business Network so businesses are alerted to the risk of a shipment not arriving on time or in full, and can take the necessary action.
Global logistics networks have been significantly disrupted by the pandemic, more frequent severe weather, and geopolitical events. Logistics managers must understand these risks as early as possible and Everstream’s solution, which features on-time, in-full predictive analytics, is uniquely able to provide such visibility to every shipment, even weeks before departure. The solution analyzes network risks and delivers predictive shipment-level analytics for logistics and real-time in-transit visibility with risk monitoring.

Here is how the integration works. The SAP Logistics Business Network sends Everstream Analytics incoming shipments via the API interface. Any shipment updates or cancellations are also sent. Everstream sends risk updates and insights to SAP Logistics Business Network, which are then sent to users, such as global logistics managers, who can view and analyze potential risks to shipments. These businesses can also monitor for potential disruptions and real-time global threats to the entire supply chain, logistics nodes, and lanes.
