AMP’s CHALLENGES
- Huge time pressure
- Short time between end of the picking proces newspapers and
departure of our delivery routes : max. 2 minutes
- 350 vehicles visiting 5.500 stops (mainly during the night)
- Need to increase visibility of operations
- To provide accurate information to customers
(senders/receivers)
- To give decision tools for internal follow-up
- Enhance Return Flow management (unsold items)
- Being ready for diversification
- More complex logistic flows
- Customers require fast & accurate info: delivery times, incidents
