Transportation is at the centre of major supply chain crises. Transportation has recently been affected by factors such as a lack of truck drivers, lack of container capacity and associated price hikes, disruptions caused by incidents in the Suez canal, ports closed due to public health measures, and borders closing as a consequence of (trade) wars and Brexit.

When expensive goods or materials go missing, it can cost your company a huge amount of money. There’s the cost of the goods themselves plus the cost of replacing them, the cost of delayed delivery, idled labor and more. The knock-on impact can be massive. Knowing where your shipments are and when they are going to reach their destination is critical information for logistics managers. In-transit shipment visibility gives organizations the ability to respond to supply chain disruption and reduce risks.

Every day, perishable goods make their way across domestic, international, and intercontinental routes, through an elaborate supply chain from point of harvest to retail to fulfil worldwide consumption needs. These consumable and non-consumable products, such as meats, fish, flowers need to be handled and transported in a fast and reliable manner to ensure shipment integrity and minimize any losses. This is largely made possible by air transport which facilitates the movement of perishables across the world. Though proven to be robust, perishable transport has succumbed to inevitable pressures inflicted on the supply chain by the pandemic, such as capacity constraints and transport restrictions which significantly impact food loss and waste.

Supply chain disruptions, unpredictable order volumes, the uptick in e-commerce orders and changing customer expectations are all creating new roadblocks and opportunities for global organizations.

While our inboxes are flooded on a daily basis with news about how the pandemic has created supply chain and commodities issues, global organizations must think about more than just near-term issues. Although the pandemic will recede, long-term factors like geo-politics, evolving governance standards, changes in regulations, environmental and tax laws, and implementation of new trade agreements will force a reorientation of global supply chains. Gone are the days where “lean” metrics were the sole drivers of supply chains, as a multitude of factors must be considered moving into the future.
