Digital innovation at the heart of the supply chain

The Supply Chain Event is the leading event for Supply Chain Innovation, which brought together over 120 exhibitors, solution providers and service providers this year again. The topics of this new edition were the following: the management of physical flows, intralogistics efficiency, the "Data Driven" company and a vertical focus on the expansion of e-commerce. For the 6th year running, the Digital Supply Chain Award was held during the SCE, a competition designed to highlight digital innovation in the supply chain. It is a showcase for new technologies adapted to the supply chain with a focus on the logistics of tomorrow.

12 candidates took part in this Digital Supply Chain Award in a battle to present their digital supply chain innovations: Siemens, CRC Services, DCbrain, Everysens, FuturMaster, Ineo-Sense, Kardinal, Mojix, Sedapta-Osys, Solystic, STID and the overall winner Shiptify.

Shiptify has been making a difference in the world of TMS (Transport Management System) for 5 years with its digital solutions. More than 5,000 companies work with their solutions every day with their suppliers, customers, carriers and forwarders. Romain Codron presented SHIPTIDOCK 2.0, the Doctolib of the warehouse. It is a very simple tool to make a transport appointment on a logistics or industrial site with customer references such as: ManoMano, Lyreco, Alstom, Safran, Oscaro.

3 major advantages:

  • For the customer: planning, smoothing and complete traceability of his receptions and therefore productivity and quality gains
  • For the carrier: a reduction in waiting time on site with ultra-fast booking: 80% of bookings made in less than 20 seconds
  • Rapid implementation: the SHIPTIDOCK 2.0 solution can be implemented in just 30 to 45 minutes per site

Companies and logistics sites of all sizes can benefit from this technology and more than 500 sites are already equipped with it.
