“There’s never been a time like this in global logistics”
Recent global disruptions have exposed longstanding weaknesses in ocean logistics processes and communications. LSPs are trying to manage the chaos of a global shipping supply chain that is perpetually stuck in peak season while ocean freight carriers provide little insight into the process and lack accountability when delays occur.
Powered by the Logistics Orchestration® platform, Booking and Allocation Management by Slync.io allows logisticians to stop managing global value chains by email and spreadsheet – accelerating, streamlining, and automating processes while improving timeliness, data quality and transparency within a single system of record. It allows LSPs to navigate the perpetual peak season by juggling shifting schedules and quickly matching limited carrier capacity to customer freight.
