Available Functionalities
Pyloghub offers a variety of features designed to enhance your supply chain management processes. Below is a brief overview of the available feature categories.
GEO APPS
Unlock best-in-class supply chain mapping with the Geo Apps bundle. This tool makes it easy to create custom, clear maps that visualize your supply chain while enabling global reachability analysis and street-level distance calculations. By mapping your sales areas and customer locations, you gain full visibility and ensure cost-effective planning. Plus, the ability to convert addresses into coordinates and vice versa lays the foundation for successful supply chain projects. With these insights, you can spot inefficiencies and optimize your network, driving smarter decision-making and improved operations.
NETWORK DESIGN
The apps from the Network Design category enable powerful analysis and scenario simulations for cost-optimal network design and goods flow. It helps determine the ideal warehouse locations and ensures efficient product distribution by calculating the closest warehouse to each customer. By using real shipment data, you can reduce transportation costs, improve service quality, and create a cost-efficient flow of goods. With the ability to compare scenarios based on travel times and costs, this tool helps identify network inefficiencies and optimize product flows for a more streamlined supply chain.
TRANSPORT OPTIMIZATION
The apps from the Transport Optimization bundle offer data-driven insights to help you find the best routes and gain a deeper understanding of your shipments. It factors in variables like flexible driving breaks, customer or vehicle time availability, and whether to use your own fleet or third-party logistics (3PLs). This enables you to create timely, cost-effective transportation routes while reducing expenses and improving operational transparency. Additionally, it provides full visibility into your carbon footprint, eliminating manual calculations and simplifying the process of tracking and reducing your environmental impact for more sustainable business practices.
PREDICTIVE ANALYTICS
The Predictive Analytics apps help you stay ahead of shifts in consumer behavior and market conditions by forecasting future demand using historical data. By analyzing demand trends and predicting future SKU needs, you can reduce waste, minimize risks, and make informed strategic decisions. This tool ensures you have the right products available at the right time, reducing stock imbalances and improving customer satisfaction. Better demand forecasting also streamlines inventory management, driving efficiency and enhancing overall operations.
Sample Code: Advanced Center of Gravity
To demonstrate how easily Pyloghub can be integrated into your workflow, here’s a simple mockup using sample data for the Advanced Center of Gravity calculation. With the app, you can determine the optimal location for new warehouses based on customer locations, their demand for specific product groups, and the corresponding supply sources.
With just a few lines of code, you can load the sample data, configure your parameters, and run the optimization, all while optionally saving the scenario to your workspace for further analysis and comparison.
How to Automate Supply Chain Map Updates
The PIP Packages provide effective solutions to streamline and enhance your supply chain operations. Whether you’re optimizing routes, improving distribution center locations, or using predictive analytics for smarter decision-making, these apps simplify complex tasks and automate time-consuming processes. By integrating the Log-hub Supply Chain Apps PIP packages into your existing workflows, you can automate repetitive tasks, reducing manual effort and enhancing efficiency. This allows you to smoothly incorporate our optimization into your daily operations, enabling continuous improvement. Before you dive into the optimization, make sure your environment is ready to use the packages.
