As a supplier and manufacturer of cars and commercial vehicle spare parts, the bilstein group opted for PSIglobal in particular because of the powerful algorithms for handling large volumes of data. In addition, the high flexibility and possibilities for modeling the logistics network were decisive factors.
Furthermore, the logistics network routing integrated in PSIglobal can be used to optimize the flow of goods across the entire supply chain and thus across all transport stages. Service-optimized and emission-efficient deliveries to the target markets can be determined based on a multi-level warehouse structure, taking into account various product groups and shipment types via a digital twin. PSIglobal enables the reduction of the CO2 footprint through integrated calculation functions and supports the development of a sustainable supply chain management.
Initially, PSIglobal was used to set up a logistics network routing in France and Germany. This concept is now being rolled out step-by-step to other sales and procurement markets.
