Intelligent services transform the supply chain
We help clients transform their supply chains into intelligent operations by combining top-flight talent with applied intelligence.
How we work
Our supply chain services cover four critical components, helping clients generate quantifiable benefits—for example, returns of up to $5 for every $1 invested in our end-to-end outsourcing solution:
Plan
Gain greater capacity to manage the right inventory at the right time and improve forecast accuracy.
Make
Reduce materials spending and procurement operations costs with direct sourcing.
Deliver
Attain more cost-efficiency with transport management, XPL operations and logistics control tower services.
Service
Keep customers satisfied through end-to-end service, including spare parts, returns and warranty management.
Build a digital bridge to the supply chain future
Imagine an agile, responsive and digitally-driven supply chain smart enough to predict or anticipate customer demands, sense changes in supply and demand and respond rapidly to unplanned events.
The supply chain of the future—asset-light, fully digital and offering highly-personalized services—is getting closer every day.
Reaching the destination requires organization leaders to embrace a new operational mindset we call XPL. By harnessing XPL, the enterprise unleashes new powers to create and orchestrate an end-to-end solution that intelligently brings together the right partners and the right capabilities.
Simply stated, XPL is the bridge to the new, and we already see companies applying this transformational combination of technology, processes and people to make the future a reality.
