Key Takeaways - Why Integrated Supply Chains are More Durable
- An integrated supply chain attempts to minimize the handling, touches, distance, movement, and opportunity for problems from order to delivery.
- When supply chains are not integrated, there is a potential risk to on-time delivery, accuracy, and service performance.
- Additional supply chain partners can drive risk (cost, delays, errors) into the supply chain. Each additional company can add risk because they are separated by distance, systems, corporate walls, and motives.
- Most 3PLs don't have capabilities in trucks, warehouses, technology, people, and know-how to manage large supply chains so they partner with other providers. It all works on a good day, but they aren’t all good days.
- The advantages of an integrated supply chain include:
- Distance is eliminated or greatly reduced because the warehouse is attached to the terminal.
- Communication is faster, better, cheaper – everybody works at the same company, one organization, one management team, easier to get everyone on the same page.
- Everybody is using the same systems, no system integrations required, which saves money and time.
- A. Duie Pyle is a true supply chain partner who has the warehousing, trucks, people, expertise, and experience to deliver a fully integrated supply chain solution.
