Abstract: The supply chain is often discussed as one cohesive and linear entity. In reality, it is an extended and complex ecosystem. Each player in the ecosystem has a different relationship with the goods it is moving to multiple types of recipients and adds a distinct type of value to the network. In addition, there are numerous supply chain disruptions that can happen along the way. These influences and the scale and complexity of the transportation ecosystem make advance transportation visibility key to any company’s success. This paper explains what real-time visibility platforms are, the capabilities they provide and describes the value they bring to their users. It also provides insights and trends around these platforms as they grow and mature. Readers will get an understanding how to transform their supply chain through visibility while facilitating seamless execution that creates real supply chain value.
