Logistics industry software survey report
---- June 2004 logistics practical research question
Recently, there were 10 people, two groups, and the Songbei logistics were concentrated in two groups. Although the Songbei logistics concentrated on the topic, although it is not possible to analyze the whole process, It can also have a more comprehensive understanding.
Object 1: New Debao Supermarket, in Baiyun District, Haizhu District has a chain store. It belongs to a small supermarket, there is not much material stock, so there is no special warehouse, and the store in the supermarket is also a warehouse in the supermarket. In order to save costs, sales and warehousing operations are achieved by a software. The supermarket is used in a set of commercial software from Guangzhou Cody Software. - "Cody Single Store Business Management System", software can statistically The warehouse variety, quantity and time, daily sales volume and remaining stock. When the stock of a sample is empty, the software will prompt the goods. You can query the sales status analysis form for each item, which can generate a detailed report of goods sales, inventory. The supermarket is independently operated and independently, there is no commodity flow between the chain supermarket, so there is no problem, the software does not have this function, because the law of supermarket products is largely purchased by consumers Decided, principles and special warehouses have a larger entry, which has no functionality of library management. According to the operator, there are some shortcomings, such as: some data can be negligible error, which is easy to cause statistical reports, no security stock settings, to manually query the stock of goods, trouble. Despite the shortcomings of the store, it is considered that the software is still basic to meet their needs.
Object 2: City Star Logistics. The company is a large logistics company, and the sales area of Songbei covers an area of tens of thousands of square meters, the area, and the scale is sigh. The company's organization is complete, management customer department, administration, personnel department ..., operating layer bill of lading, Warehouse Management Office, PLPA, etc. With your own transport team, the vehicle is more than 120. More than 1,000 employees, according to the security guard, the vehicle is 70-00, the throughput is large, and the throughput is very large. From the administrative department, the company is a third-party logistics company that distributes the whole country. Its main business is temporary, transit, and generated. The business in the Pearl River Delta region is mainly in major cities across the country and the logistics enterprises. Its warehouse is divided into two major blocks, and the left is the warehouse to the Pearl River Delta region and the warehouse to the country. The operation process of the warehouse is about the following, the warehouse process: finalize the customer single >> Instructions >> Transport orders >> Introduction list >> Transportation storage, outbound process: receive the shipping list >> PTF >> delivery Library. Inquiry at the bill of lading, the company's bill of lading programs fully operated. There is computer-assisted, but it is not used to manage the corresponding software. The management of the storage section is used to software, and the entire warehousing process is monitored by INTRCANET. Due to the business secret, there is no comprehensive understanding. The company manages modernization and operational efficiency. It is a typical example of third-party logistics enterprises.
Object 3: Southern Labor Insurance Supply Company, the largest labor insurance supplier agent and supplier in the Pearl River Delta region, the company has an agent shop in the Pearl River Triangle, with a special commodity warehouse. There is a comprehensive management program for the entry and sales of its own goods. We went to the company's headquarters, and learned that the company's own investment has developed a set of management software for yourself - "Remote Multi-Point Insurance System", the software is characterized by making the company through Internet and supplier manufacturers Contact, instant orders, remote ordering, and proxy are also through remote audit orders and shipments, and the warehousing is also operated by software remote monitoring. This allows the headquarters of the people who can fully monitor the company's operations, greatly saving human material and improving corporate efficiency. It is understood that the management of the software inventory is particularly strong, can generate a variety of detailed reports, statistical data capabilities and analysis and sales skills are strong. The disadvantage is that the operation is complex, easy to use. Access is finally asked: How do you think about how to walk in front of remote control and e-commerce? They look a little proud, and the prospects for future companies are also full of confidence. Summary: According to my survey, whether it is supermarket, manufacturers or special logistics companies, they don't blindly have a blindness of logistics software, but should be required, the first is necessary, if needed, what should I need? Software, what functionality to achieve, what new problems will occur after it, and so they need to consider. According to the survey data, the software used in three companies is different, and the functional implementation is also different. It is because of the different software needs, and various software that provide different functions have a living space. "Brand is more, manufacturers" is the most significant feature of the domestic logistics software market. In this field, there is a large stack of Xipu, Dongfang Era, good Easy, etc., do not know the manufacturers of the industry, and many like Bo, Merchants Di Chen, Asia, and Yikang understand. Manufacturer. According to incomplete statistics, there are no more than 500 manufacturers who can provide logistics software services in China (Note: "Logistics" referred to herein is a broad logistics, including all activities including transportation, warehousing, inventory, material management, etc.) Even manufacturers focus on logistics software are close to 100. Unlike financial software, it is not like ERP software, logistics software has no history in China. Without the baptism of many users, it is impossible to have very mature software. At present, there are many logistics software in the domestic market, and there are software adapted to third-party logistics companies, transport management software, storage management software, and logistics software specializing in freight forwarders. But no matter which logistics software, they have to improve in functionality and ease of use, which is the current situation in China's logistics software industry.
