There has been an unprecedented growth in global sourcing and manufacturing, riding piggy-back on the phenomenal developments that have taken place in technology, and transportation and communication facilities. Products today are made anywhere to be shipped anywhere. Companies doing global sourcing however are faced with unforeseen transportation costs, higher investment in inventory, longer and less predictable cycle times and increased business risk; while their customers back home are demanding lower prices, improved responsiveness and speedier order fulfillment. Lack of total visibility in the mean time is hampering effective logistics performance.

Relying exclusively on their current technology stack of telephones, faxes, e-mails, spreadsheets and desktop database applications has become woefully inadequate when real-time visibility has become the need of the hour. The current manual-intensive process is no longer sustainable. Companies are therefore equipping their logistics staff with cutting-edge technology and integrating with service providers, technology enablers and product suppliers to create a responsive, cost-effective and dynamic distribution network to support today's global business environment.

Internet-based technology is enabling a new level of transaction automation and partner synchronization that previously was not practical or even possible. This has resulted in substantial reduction in cash-to-cash cycle times, shorter order fulfillment times, and less corporate assets being committed to the order fulfillment process - all of which translate into a healthier bottom line.
