Supply Visibility Platforms: Full Transparency Across the Supply Chain with Linbis
Introduction
That’s where Linbis and its supply visibility platform come in.
Built for logistics professionals, Linbis connects every stakeholder, system, and data stream into a single intelligent platform, delivering predictive insights and real-time visibility across the entire supply chain.
Step 1: End-to-End Data Integration
Linbis connects to every system that matters in logistics:
- TMS (Transportation Management System): Live shipment status, ETAs, and carrier updates.
- WMS (Warehouse Management System): Inventory levels, order fulfillment, and stock rotation.
- ERP: Purchase orders, billing, and supplier data.
- IoT devices: GPS, temperature, and cargo condition sensors.
- External data sources: Weather, port congestion, and customs APIs.
This integration creates a real-time data ecosystem where every movement and transaction is visible from origin to delivery.
Step 2: Real-Time Tracking and Monitoring
The Linbis supply visibility platform provides real-time location tracking for all shipments:
- Global map view with live transport movement.
- Predictive ETAs adjusted dynamically using AI.
- Automatic notifications for status changes or delays.
- Condition monitoring for temperature-sensitive cargo.
Every stakeholder — from freight forwarder to customer — can see where goods are, how they’re moving, and when they’ll arrive.
Step 3: Predictive Insights and Risk Alerts
Linbis uses artificial intelligence to detect risks and anticipate disruptions before they impact delivery:
- Predicts port or border delays using historical trends.
- Identifies routes likely to face congestion or weather issues.
- Alerts users about exceptions like customs holds or missing documents.
- Suggests alternative routing automatically to minimize downtime.
This predictive capability transforms logistics visibility into actionable foresight.
Step 4: Unified Dashboards and Collaboration
Linbis gives teams a centralized control tower dashboard where they can:
- Monitor shipment status, inventory levels, and supplier performance.
- View KPIs like on-time delivery rates, dwell time, and cost per shipment.
- Collaborate through shared digital workspaces and chat integrations.
- Create visual reports for performance and SLA compliance.
Every department — operations, finance, procurement, and customer service — works from the same real-time data view.
Step 5: Automation and Integration with Workflows
Linbis connects visibility data directly to logistics automation:
- If delay detected, trigger customer notifications or rerouting.
- If inventory low, alert procurement or auto-reorder from supplier.
- If shipment delivered, auto-generate invoice or proof of delivery.
- If exception occurs, open a resolution task automatically.
This tight link between visibility and automation ensures that information leads directly to action.
