How Real-Time Visibility gives your company a competitive advantage
As a consultant for leading global management
consulting firms prior to founding Sixfold, I saw
a recurring challenge: customers asking when
goods will arrive, shippers handling myriad inquiries to find out “where’s my truck”, and carriers
struggling to do their best to arrive on time and
provide status updates.Read on to learn more about the added value of
real-time visibility, which provides exceptional value
with optimized B2B supply chains, proactive alerts,
shared data, exception management, streamlined
processes, and insights to make the lives of customers everywhere easier and more efficient!

Key takeaways
What is the ‘Amazon effect’
The ‘Amazon effect’ that we experience with our B2C orders and deliveries is coming soon to the B2B world, enabled by the same fundamental capabilities being delivered by real-time visibility tools in the supply chain.
Inefficient freight tracking as the key challenge
A key challenge is inefficient freight tracking. It is very time consuming and labor intensive to get a current status of a customer order. Companies must make repeated calls to check on each delivery, and often have to manually send requests by email and fax for status updates
Where is the business value
Priceless business intelligence lets you manage by exception, optimize the supply chain and keep customers happy.
