Infor SCM (Supply Chain Management) > Transportation and Logistics

Far-reaching solutions to navigate the complexities of global transportation.

Winning new business and driving sales means serving more customers over greater geographic areas across more suppliers. Yet globalization entails more cash tied up in inventory across more nodes and modes, longer lead times, more service variability, and compliance with new governmental regulations. 

Infor’s Transportation and Logistics solution helps mobilize your global inventory so you can get the right goods to the right customer and place at the right time in the right condition for the right price, even as you comply with trade regulations. As a result, you’re more likely to get the sale and deliver on your commitment, while reducing costs, boosting service, and avoiding customs delays and fines.

Infor’s supply chain logistics management solution helps companies like yours:

• Lower logistics and transportation costs 8-15%
• Increase asset turnover
