Another Actualis client has been shortlisted for a prestigious trade award, with the submission and subsequent judges presentation created by the Actualis team.
Publisher and Events organiser, Akabo media, is one of the most influential voices in supply chain, freight and logistics. Its annual Supply Chain Excellence awards uniquely feature clients and service providers, to emphasise the value and innovation delivered across the sector.
Despite the challenges of the pandemic and extended lockdowns the 2020 shortlist features 70 businesses, recognised for excellence, including Actualis’ client Metro, in partnership with LANXESS.
Shortlisted in the ‘Supply chain visibility’ category, Metro’s submission highlighted the solutions conceived and delivered by our technical and chemical experts – MVT and Elite – to LANXESS.
ADDING PINPOINT VISIBILITY TO ADDITIVES outlined the issues that LANXESS faced in tracking and managing their global fleet of 700 ISO tanks, to collect product from 33 global manufacturing sites and distribute to customers around the world.
The ultra-secure, cloud-based solution developed by the MVT team has been designed to meet the most demanding performance indicators, while managing these critical assets in real-time, with pinpoint accuracy, using a blend of supply chain modelling, GPS tracking and geo-fencing.
Exception management and automated non-conformity resolution is built into each tank’s supply chain path, to expedite progress and ensure the most efficient use of these critical assets, without human intervention.
LANXESS has improved profitability by increasing turnaround times and reducing redundant dwell time by 50%, which has also increased the ROI generated by these key assets.
With one tool for global tank control and communications across LANXESS’ business, the ISO fleet has grown by 23%, without adding to the existing global management team.
Winners will be announced at London’s Park Lane Hilton on 12th November 2020.
