  22. Sender Address Details Receiver Address Details Carrier Code Pro Number (Tracking Number) Barcode of Pro Number Also available without Pro number Customizable reference field Ship Date Total Weight LTL and other Carriers - Shipping Label Mailing Label

  23. Zone Skipping • Consolidate based on end-point delivery • Ship From nearer to final destination • Pre-label with alternative Ship From • Sample: US to US carrier hub

  24. Zone Skipping - Example

  25. QAD TMS Invoice Matching • Invoice Matching Engine • Automated Matching for • Actual Freight Invoice • Estimated Cost • Determination of discrepancies • Approval of supplier invoices • Creation of ‘light’ shipments

  26. QAD TMS Matching Process • Shipment Retrieval by tracking number • Invoice Cost tends to be Totalled • Estimates matched in precedence: • Freight • Fuel • Accessorial charges • Variance calculated • Carrier variance (default) • Shipper variance (manually chosen)

  27. Simplifying your Non-Production Shipping Process Non-Production Shipping Challenges • Multiple departments • Different types of shipments • Limited or no process in place • Time consuming • Little oversight According to a study by PARCEL Magazine and the ARC Advisory Group, poor management of desktop shipping can lead to shipping cost increases of at least 20% on a yearly basis.

  28. Non-Production Shipping Opportunities Opportunities for Improvement • Empower employees • Control Freight Usage • Streamline handling inyour mailroom / dock • Automate documentation • Gain visibility to costs • Consolidation of carriers / accounts One high-tech firm found that they had 73 different contracts in place with parcel carriers around the world. By consolidating that to three or four carriers that could serve the entire company, they found they would save an estimated 10% from their annual parcel spend.

  29. Non-Production Shipping Who Uses Desktop shipping? • Departments and people across your company • Shipping things like • Samples • Engineering pre-production products • Marketing materials • Documents • Internal assets (Equipment)

  30. Non-Production Shipping Benefits Why Use Desktop Shipping? ARC Advisory Group, The High Cost of Desktop Shipping

  31. Functional Capabilities Package Exception Management

  32. Shipment Tracking Challenges • Lack of visibility to shipments after they leave your door • Inability to track every package due to shipment volumes • Too much time spent looking up tracking numbers via individual carrier websites • On-time delivery is critical for time-sensitive products • Missed deliveries means penalties and damages customer satisfaction

  33. Operational and Carrier Challenges • No visibility to inbound / return shipments • Claims are not always made for lost/damaged shipments due to lack of resources • No easy way to analyze carrier and service-level usage across the organization • We rely on the carrier to tell us how they performed • Invoicing can’t happen until Proof-of-Delivery is obtained

  34. A Day in the Life of a Typical CSR Time Consuming / Inefficient Ad hoc Tracking Activities
