FourKites, a leading provider in supply chain visibility, has announced the availability of its groundbreaking Inbound Visibility solution. This new offering is designed to provide customers with an efficient, predictive, and seamless way to manage inbound orders and shipments across all transport modes, covering the entire order lifecycle.

Overcoming Traditional Supply Chain Challenges

The supply chain industry often grapples with outdated information, delayed shipment updates, and manual processes, leading to resource wastage, costly expedited shipping, and customer dissatisfaction. Traditional methods for inbound shipment visibility involve manual analyses taking over a day, carrier updates arriving late in the shipment journey, and expensive solutions for in-transit disruptions.

Transforming Inbound Shipment Management

FourKites’ Inbound Visibility solution changes this paradigm by offering comprehensive, real-time insights into inbound shipments and orders. The solution enables stakeholders to access crucial data from the initial stages of an order’s lifecycle, identifying potential lateness or shortfalls up to four weeks before delivery. Disruptions are quantified in monetary terms, helping teams prioritize actions based on business impact.

A High-Impact Innovation

Priya Rajagopalan, Chief Product Officer at FourKites, emphasizes the solution’s role in addressing complex challenges in the industry. As a unique provider of true order lifecycle visibility from pre-tendering stages, FourKites connects critical information across the supply chain, empowering stakeholders to make informed decisions.

Integrated Access via My Workspace

Customers can access the Inbound Visibility solution through FourKites’ My Workspace, a dashboard that consolidates insights from across FourKites’ product suite. This unified view allows users to access vital supply chain insights more rapidly and efficiently than before.
