An explanation of end-to-end shipping solutions
When transporting your goods, you think about delivering them door-to-door as fluently, quickly, and safely as possible-, tailored to the needs and preferences of both the provider and the receiver.
After all, successful deliveries will help to grow the market and contribute to a prosperous company and satisfied customers. End-to-end solutions can fulfill these wishes.
What are end-to-end shipping solutions?
End-to-end contains processes of a company, in which a service or system is run through from start to finish in order to provide a complete solution. Within logistics, end-to-end shipping solutions are about the processes to solve shipping issues from A to Z. If you; as a customer, hand over your shipping question to a logistic expert, they will ´answer´ by providing and arranging everything from start to finish.
Whether you want to send a small box fast by plane or wish to have a ship full of containers transported to the other side of the ocean, you want your shipment to be effortless and hassle-free from the point of origin to the final destination. Your freight forwarder will follow various phases and steps to ensure that processes run as smoothly as possible.
Logistics and supply chain management
Where logistics mainly concerns the flow of goods, supply chain management also includes the “preliminary phase,” – whereby the flow of goods starts from the supplier, flowing through to the own organization and/or the customer.
An essential and well-known concept utilized within logistics and supply chain management is the 7 Rs. The Rs put the foundation for planning, implementing, and controlling movement from one point to another, efficiently and cost-effectively while meeting customer needs.
The 7 R’s of logistics are based on ‘getting the right product, in the right quantity and condition, at the right place and time, to the right customer for the right price.
This concept can be used to achieve successful end-to-end solutions while dealing with the complexity of shipments. Meanwhile, highlighting the customer service side since every customer wants everything to be Right.
Depending on whom they enable, an end-to-end shipping expert will provide help and service with the shipping and/or supply chain processes.
End-to-end logistics experts can assist with processes such as;
- inspection of goods
- checking quantities and quality
- stock management
- shipping control and shipping labels
- booking shipping slots
- submission of customs clearance requirements
- freight forwarder consolidation
- local forwarding consolidation
- delivery to warehouses and/or the final consumer
- handling returns
- providing hassle-free processes
We can agree that there are many external factors that one has to deal with. Many companies, therefore, enlist the help of logistics experts to make their end-to-end shipping seamless and undisturbed, especially when a company does not have access to internal logistics and fleets, knowing that the size of this industry is vast and worldwide.
‘For every problem, there is a solution, and for every question, an answer.’ The proper logistics expert must have experience and knowledge of regulations, the market, and partnerships and be capable of providing adequate and smooth coordination and documentation.
