Delivering Total Control over Transportation Operations to a Large Steel Manufacturer
November | 2020
Client Background
Client: A large steel manufacturer
Industry: Steel
Areas of operations: Europe and US
Number of Employees: Over 10,000
Challenge
The client wanted a state-of-the-art system to automate and optimize their transportation planning and execution. They had manual processes for invoicing, load sheet, way bill and MBOL creation, leading to inefficiencies and delays. The client also needed dock scheduling for inbound and outbound trailers along with network planning and optimization. There were internal and external costs involved due to a lack of sync between sourcing and planning across plants.
They decided to implement and rollout Blue Yonder Transportation Management System (TMS) across the organization, including France, Germany and Spain.
Solution
Wipro partnered with the steel manufacturing company and deployed the JDA 2018.1 Version on Cloud. The implementation included Transportation Planner solution to optimize the loads based on the utilization factor configured.
Implementation highlights:
Business Impact
Wipro team was successful in eliminating the day-to-day mundane manual efforts of Logistics Planners. We were able to provide apt insights for a successful implementation and rollout.
Outcomes include:
Whenever you read the words ‘Hollywood’ and ‘Security’ in the same sentence, your mind probably wanders of in the direction of movies likeDie Hard 4.0 or Swordfish where uber-cool and suave hackers like Hugh Jackman trying to hack $9.5 Billion off the government from a computer with seven screens.
The recent increase in the frequency and impact of cyber-attacks have kept Critical Infrastructure companies on their toes.
Security monitoring has always been critical to protecting IT ecosystems but with the rise in IoT-enabled devices and connected systems, the fear of cyberattacks has grown exponentially.
