Centralize supply chain and spend data
You can’t understand your true cost-to-serve if you don’t have great financial data. Too often teams spend more time cleaning data, than analyzing data.
Loop's logistics-AI seamlessly standardizes all of your data so you can accurately calculate your cost-to-serve and understand how it impacts profitability.
Allocate costs
Stop guessing where your money is going. AP teams suffer from high complexity and low standardization with supply chain data so they often resort to best guesses or averages.
Loop lets you move on from the tedious tasks and accidental errors of manual cost allocation. Our logistics-AI automates cost allocation across GL codes, customers, lanes, and products. So you can make the most of your dollars spent.
Forecast accurately
Don't base decisions on plans. Ground your choices in reality. Accurate audits are crucial for cost management and future forecasting. Your transportation, finance, and executive teams need to precisely monitor and measure your landed costs so you can appropriately model and manage your P&L.
Analyze performance
Don’t set it and forget when it comes to your cost management. Best in class teams proactively manage their spend.
