Footwear Manufacturer Increases Fill Rates 10-15% with Supplier Collaboration

June 24, 2015

Solution: The footwear manufacturer implemented Amber Road's Global Sourcing solution in a cloud-based environment to execute purchase orders, collaboration, packing lists and invoices. Integration with a third-party logistics provider supplied shipping and logistics information to provide complete production reporting.

Results: The manufacturer has seen tremendous cost savings, efficiency improvements, and an increase in fill rates by 10%-15%. This collaborative approach also eliminates errors, greatly improving the consistency and accuracy of information shared by vendors and merchandisers. With improved shipment visibility, they have seen a strong reduction in airfreight costs. This footwear brand is also exploring the expansion of the solution for material management and quality testing.
