关于客户
Holman Parts Distribution is a national OE powertrain parts supplier based in Pennsauken, NJ, USA. The company supplies parts to dealerships and large fleets across the country. As a large-scale supplier, Holman Parts Distribution has a complex logistics operation that involves selecting carriers for different shipping zones, ensuring on-time delivery, and managing freight invoicing. The company operates across eleven U.S. locations, adding to the complexity of its logistics operation.
挑战
Holman Parts Distribution was facing several operational and financial challenges. Operationally, the company was struggling with cost overages due to inefficient carrier selection, poor on-time delivery rates, and a lack of supply chain visibility. Financially, the company was allocating too many human resources to manual freight invoicing and frequently paying incorrect invoices. These challenges prompted the company to search for a transportation management system (TMS) in the fall of 2015.
解决方案
Holman Parts Distribution implemented Kuebix TMS, a cloud-based transportation management system, across its eleven U.S. locations. The system was easy to implement as it is a turn-key SaaS solution. Within 10 days, Kuebix had integrations in place with Holman Parts’ carriers for automated freight audit and pay. The system's rating engine allowed the logistics team to select the best carriers for each lane, moving away from decisions based on 'tribal knowledge' or 'gut feeling'. The system also provided automatic invoice audit, reducing the need for manual freight invoicing.

Case Study
Integral Plant Maintenance
Mercedes-Benz and his partner GAZ chose Siemens to be its maintenance partner at a new engine plant in Yaroslavl, Russia. The new plant offers a capacity to manufacture diesel engines for the Russian market, for locally produced Sprinter Classic. In addition to engines for the local market, the Yaroslavl plant will also produce spare parts. Mercedes-Benz Russia and his partner needed a service partner in order to ensure the operation of these lines in a maintenance partnership arrangement. The challenges included coordinating the entire maintenance management operation, in particular inspections, corrective and predictive maintenance activities, and the optimizing spare parts management. Siemens developed a customized maintenance solution that includes all electronic and mechanical maintenance activities (Integral Plant Maintenance).
