Overview of Logistics & Warehousing PDF Print
Trucks come and trucks go. With logistics management and warehousing, assets are constantly shuffled from one container to another, one rack to another, and one building to another. In this circular flow of goods it is incredibly difficult to maintain transparency and know where everything is at any given moment. And yet, on average, logistics and warehousing cost any given corporation from 5-20% of its total revenue; a huge investment to include so many uncertainties.

So how do you regain control?

How do you minimize shrinkage, theft, and waste? According to the Aberdeen Group, companies that have invested in RFID technology have improved performance in logistics management by upwards of 7%, and have also recognized an additional 7% increase in customer retention.
