Business Challenge
YAMAHA is having ~100 OEMs across India, manufacturing 1000+ parts. HKX Logistics, is picking every day shipment from OEMs as per the schedule given to them by YAMAHA. JIT concept is followed by YAMAHA, setting-up the responsibility of Logistic companies and OEM that every part should delivered in factory should be as per the day’s schedule. To ensure that all deliveries arrive at manufacturing unit, on-time and in right quantity Yamaha buyers needs to be on constant phone-call with HKX & OEM team. Tracking the status of single part-number dispatch status could take ~10 phone calls and 1-2 hours of struggle.
