Along with the data blooming and connecting, the global E-logistics is still a relatively novel concept. Those that have yet to get started have at least expressed interest. Often referred to as e-fulfilment, e-logistics is the logistical process that governs everything related to the online marketplace.
Freshly launched web shops are not alone in underestimating the importance of e-Logistics. Even the bigger companies, for which e-commerce is seen as an interesting additional sales outlet, still occasionally choke when it comes to coordinating the logistical processes behind online sales. On the flipside, e-logistics can also have consequences for the company, for instance for the establishment of processes, the control system, the personnel, and the organisation.
Key elements of e-logistics that entrepreneurs should take into consideration include: multi-channel operations, cross-border functionality, warehouse layout and inventory, last mile and reverse logistics, planning and forecasting, and performance measurement.
There are a few distinct logistical challenges facing today’s entrepreneurs. One of these is effective collaboration between partners along the value chain. Clear information about current inventory is good, and the same is true for re-shipments. But perhaps even more important than both, is the need for exact data. This is necessary not just for replenishment, but also for communicating exact delivery times. The only effective way to serve the modern customer is through seamless behind-the-scenes integration of internal and external applications. For this, data synchronisation capabilities are indispensible.
