ShipLogix Delivers Managerial Reporting and Analytical
Tools
Deployment Enables Full Range of Microsoft Excel Functionality
Dec 2nd, 2003 - SEATTLE, Wa. ShipLogix,
a provider of web-hosted transportation management solutions, has
deployed Phynity’s Camelot Reporting™ product, enabling
a full range of Microsoft® Excel functionality for analyzing
shipment history data online in real-time via the ShipLogix Transportation
Execution Platform (STEP). The new functionality puts an Excel front-end
on real-time, user-triggered data extracts of auditable shipment
history from the STEP shipment database. The extracted data is made
available online as an Excel spreadsheet and presented in a client-designed
pivot-table format. Users can then take full advantage of Excel’s
powerful and familiar analytical tools to manipulate the data for
their immediate decision support needs. Some popular uses include
freight cost and optimization savings reporting by shipper, warehouse
and user; and carrier performance reporting by carrier, shipper,
warehouse and consignee.
“Logistics is a key strategic lever for corporate shippers.
To support this strategic thrust, we enable our users to extract,
analyze and audit shipment detail collected by STEP using familiar
Microsoft Excel tools,” explained Chris Larkin, Chief Technology
Officer for ShipLogix. “This process provides visibility into
the shipment lifecycle and closes the gap between raw data and mission-critical
decisions. With the click of a mouse, managers can analyze logistics
trends and performance with tools they trust and understand.”
These analytical tools support the core STEP offering of execution,
optimization and tender, track and trace technology - allowing shippers,
carriers and their business partners to collaborate in real time
and drive out waste from the supply chain.
