DCIX - CONTROL TOWER SOLUTION

A complex supply chain with global flows and many actors involved raise the need for a Control Tower solution. By automating processes and making information more accessible, the Control Tower solution helps you to achieve improved monitoring, control and analysis of your logistics flows.

 

The enabler is profound industry knowledge and our Control Tower solution named DCIX (Demand Chain Information Exchange), which gives you increased control, a more flexible supply chain and end-customer values.

What is DCIX?

DCIX is an information hub with flexible integration capabilities enabling information exchange between all involved actors in your supply chain. By collecting, holding and making the information accessible, the control and efficiency increases dramatically.

 

The specialized toolbox in DCIX helps you to monitor and control your physical, informational and financial flows in your supply chain.

 

Examples are
 Shipping point services as load planning, transport
    booking and printing of transport documents
 Real-time visibility services as Track & Trace and advising
 Financial services as automatic invoice matching, cost
    allocation, rating & billing of logistics services
 Performance tool for advanced and flexible follow-up and analysis
 Tendering tool for structured and efficient transport procurement

 

DCIX is provided to the customer as an on demand concept. By this we mean a hosted service with a web based interface available over the public Internet. DCIX is both an operational solution for day-to-day logistics and a management tool for enhanced follow-up and analysis.

 

Based on the DCIX standard platform and its modular structure, we can provide tailor made solutions that really meet our customer’s specific needs and requirements. By reusing and re-developing existing functionality and integration set-ups, we can provide a customized solution in the most cost and time efficient way.
