Lenzing Group, a world-leading provider of specialty fibers for the textile and nonwovens industries, has launched a pioneering real-time ocean shipment tracker in collaboration with digital supply chain solution company, project44.
The tracker is designed to enhance the transparency and efficiency of the global fiber supply chain, while also helping Lenzing and its customers to reduce carbon emissions.
The tracker is powered by a fully integrated real-time application programming interface (API) between Lenzing's systems applications and products (SAP) and project44's platform, Movement.
It also leverages advanced artificial intelligence (AI), GPS sensors, and machine-learning technologies to provide customers with accurate real-time insights on fiber orders, ranging from shipment status, container location, to vessel route tracking and estimated arrival times at ports around the world.
In addition to providing enhanced visibility, the tracker also offers capabilities to improve the visibility of carbon emissions among partners. This is done by providing customers with access to Scope 3 carbon emission data accredited by the Global Logistics Emission Council (GLEC) framework on shipment and container level. This data can then be used by Lenzing and its customers to collaboratively establish goals and adjust shipment plans to reduce carbon emissions.
The Lenzing real-time ocean shipment tracker will be accessible to all Lenzing customers worldwide starting September.
Benefits of the tracker:
• Enhanced transparency and efficiency of the global fiber supply chain
• Reduced carbon emissions for Lenzing and its customers
• Real-time insights on fiber orders, shipment status, container location, vessel route tracking, and estimated arrival times
• Access to Scope 3 carbon emission data accredited by the Global Logistics Emission Council (GLEC) framework on shipment and container level
