Shipping analytics: Kewill Shipping Intelligence
(KSI), a cloud-based shipping analytics solution,
helps companies understand their shipping
spend and then use that insight to improve how
they ship goods, deploy inventory, or select carriers and services.
Designed for medium-sized to large companies, KSI collects trending and intelligence data
for parcel freight spend. It also provides analytics on historical and current transportation
spend.
The solution helps companies optimize inventory placement, shipping processes, and even
labor requirements, according to Kewill. KSI
makes an organization’s shipping data readily
visible so that companies can determine the best
mix of carriers and carrier services. It also helps
identify areas for savings by analyzing everything from service levels to invoicing.
The solution uses interactive dashboards,
alerts, and ad-hoc analysis over the Web.
Because KSI is a cloud-based solution, it does
not require any capital investment or additional
IT resources. (Kewill, www.kewill.com)
Wireless intercom: The DoorCom Wireless
Intercom is designed for use at the loading dock
and receiving door. With this system, visitors can
announce themselves at the door or dock and
be answered immediately by radio-equipped
personnel.
This increases worker efficiency because no
one has to be stationed at the door waiting for
visitors to arrive. It also increases security by
reducing the likelihood that employees will
prop open doors.
The two-part system features an all-metal
speaker intercom
box, which is mounted on the outside of
the facility, and an R-series transceiver
mounted inside the
facility. The radio
transceiver, which
provides radio signal
coverage to radio-equipped personnel, has a range
of approximately 350,000 square
feet (actual range depends on building structure
and topography).
Radio-equipped personnel can receive intercom calls from practically anywhere in the building and instantly answer back using a portable
two-way radio or desk-top base station.
The system installs easily at any entry point.
DoorCom is suitable for delivery/receiving doors,
employee entrances, entrances or lobbies, and
loading docks. (Ritron, www.ritron.com)
