Improve supply chain resilience with SAP LBN

As supply chains become global and companies try to focus on their core competencies, logistics management has become complex and distributed, involving multiple players. This has resulted in expensive peer-to-peer communication and poor visibility and control across the supply chain.

SAP Logistics Business Network (LBN) is an open network that enables companies to connect with business partners forinter-company collaboration and transparency.

SAP LBN facilitates data exchange among supply chain participants at the global level so they can benefit from the synergies of partners, and gain common understanding, achieve process optimization for reduced costs and improved capacity utilization.

In an increasingly volatile global business environment, SAP LBN helps manage exceptions and increase productivity through easier supply chain collaboration based on real-time information and predictive intelligence.

With SAP’s business network for logistics solution, you can improve freight collaboration, goods tracking, material traceability and supply chain resilience.

Collaboration and insight are key

Business users are demanding shorter delivery times and consumer-level experience as volumes increase. As a result, information is often siloed or delayed, and companies lack a full view of their logistics operations.

To future-proof their operations, companies are investing in technology that can connect different parts of their business, deliver on the promise of transparency, and improve customer experience and satisfaction.

This provides a central entry point for managing logistics operations, exchanging documents and increasing transparency throughout the entire value chain.
