Smart Track - MyHub

Keep track of products

As a proactive measure to assist customers with managing a chain of vendors abroad, Vendor Management is an active intervention program, where 20Cube manages vendors within the specifications set by the customer and communicated in their Purchase Order files with SKU / Product search. Vendor Management monitors progress of a customer’s order, from issue of the Purchase Order until final delivery, carrying the widest range of fixed milestones and optional milestones, covering almost every aspect of a sophisticated modern supply chain.

Feedback is focused on all the key decision points of an Origin Cargo Management control process, offering active `trigger points` where 20Cube is empowered to take appropriate pre-planned actions. Because of this, performance metrics and milestone information are at their highest level.

True end to end visibility up to 24 Tailored milestones

MyHub provides industry leading visibility from order to delivery via its Smart Track module. In Smart Track a user can monitor estimated and actual details for a given purchase order, shipment or container. From the moment a purchase order is entered into the system, the customer can see every detail from the supplier follow up program, bookings, estimated and actual shipping schedule all the way through arrival and delivery. The information in MyHub is updated live in real time from a range of sources including 20Cube’s internal process management system.

Supplier Followup Engine - MyHub

Vendor Compliance Automated

Once an order is placed upon a vendor, both parties agree upon an estimated date for the goods to be ready, or depending on terms, shipped on board or arrived into store at destination. Based on this expected date, the customer plans his forward inventory and estimated stock quantity available for distribution. With many aspects of design, production and packaging potentially impacting on the expected lead time, 20Cube has built a system to help re-forecast the planned ready date once these variables have been identified. This system is known as Supplier Follow Up. Based on agreed business rules with the customer, 20Cube will generate an automated communication to the vendor, requesting them to update the MyHub system with the revised information.

Exception Engine - MyHub

Manage by Exception, save time, save money

When a customer shares their purchase order data, it gives 20Cube the ability to not only monitor the cargo readiness, but to engage in compliance management as well. If a customer shares the full order information, including Incoterms, product/SKU and quantities, then 20Cube is able to validate what cargo is booked against defined business rules. The MyHub system communicates any exceptions to the customer at destination, and the customer can approve or request the vendor to amend their booking. These exceptions can be tracked and reported on over time, creating a vendor scorecard to help identify and reduce indirect costs in the supply chain.

Be in control of container utilisation

As part of the Online Booking system, the customer is able to direct an approved booking to be consolidated with other cargo at origin to form a Buyers Consolidation. The feature, called Hold for Consol, improves container utilisation and optimises the freight cost. With the click of a button, the customer directs 20Cube to receive the cargo from the vendor, and hold the goods in our warehouse pending receipt of other shipments for the same destination. Optimised container load plans are prepared and the shipments are packed together to maximise the available space in each container.

Reduce indirect costs

Reducing indirect costs in the supply chain is a key requirement in today’s competitive world. One area in which 20Cube has focused our expertise is in better managing of the delivery and return of shipping containers on arrival at destination. Consignee’s have limited time in which to take delivery of containers, unload the cargo and return the empty containers to the dehire station before incurring additional charges. The Import Container Management feature in MyHub provides detailed visibility of containers arriving into port including key dates for cargo availability, storage, estimated & actual delivery, free time remaining, requested & actual dehire. Also in this screen, customers are able to request deliveries and notify empty containers for return. This helps the customer to avoid costly wharf storage charges for late collection, and minimise demurrage fees for late return of the empty containers.

Transparent Billing

Documentation plays a critical role in the entire supply chain process and managing this can be quite cumbersome and time consuming. 20Cube’s MyHub system captures shipment related documentation from booking stage and throughout the supply chain. Documents are tagged to purchase order, shipment and container for ease of reference, and available for download from MyHub in their native format. 20Cube invoices are also available for download from MyHub
