PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS<br />
Kewill Flagship<br />
Requirements:<br />
Provide the transportation planning tool, integrated with their<br />
enterprise resource planning software, with the ability to have full<br />
visibility of their suppliers goods in transit, including the carrier,<br />
service, <strong>and</strong> cost of freight; Ideally give Lockheed control of the<br />
shipping process.<br />
Solution:<br />
� Working with Oracle <strong>OTM</strong> <strong>and</strong> Kewill Flagship, Lockheed has<br />
implemented a supplier’s portal which is used <strong>for</strong> shipping.<br />
� Creatively using carrier’s return services, Lockheed is in complete<br />
control of the shipping process, including carrier selection.<br />
� Supplier’s ship from a custom interface <strong>and</strong> don’t know they are<br />
actually processing a ‘return’ - st<strong>and</strong>ard shipping labels are used.<br />
� Carriers agreed this was a best practice; it reduces the amount of<br />
invoices <strong>and</strong> manifests they work with. The carriers waived ‘return fee’<br />
� Kewill Flagship Tracking API is used <strong>for</strong> pro-active tracking<br />
