Overcoming International Logistics Challenges with Smart Logistics Management in the Panel Industry
The panel industry plays a vital role in technology. This case features a prominent panel manufacturer focused on high-value, differentiated product applications. Ranked among the global top 10, the company recently implemented the Glory Cloud Platform to streamline its import/export logistics, addressing complex challenges.
The company faced challenges with multiple, non-integrated internal systems. Staff had to rely on several platforms for customs and tax procedures, while manual declaration review was labor-intensive and error-prone. Paper-based processes often led to declaration mistakes, resulting in unnecessary tax expenses.
Poor coordination between sourcers and shipping teams caused imbalances between planned and actual shipment volumes. This made it hard to analyze discrepancies, complicated logistics allocations, and increased costs.
With thousands of logistics cost items, fully manual price comparison processes were time-consuming, error-prone, and inefficient. The abundance of global suppliers made quarterly logistics cost analysis particularly challenging, affecting supplier evaluation and cost control.
Global Management of 30 international logistics providers and more than 6000 global suppliers.
This case implemented the Outbound, Inbound, and Billing modules in Taiwan.
The system integrates key data such as invoices and declarations via EDI (Electronic Data Interchange), streamlining processes and reducing manual workload. This improves efficiency, reduces errors, and aligns with eco-friendly business practices.
The platform’s Auto Assign feature simplifies logistics planning, improves allocation accuracy, and aligns with sourcers’ strategies. Managers can evaluate discrepancies for procurement adjustments.
By digitizing seasonal price comparisons, the platform accelerates processes and enhances accuracy. Tools like scoring and supplier ranking aid in crafting competitive logistics strategies.
