Embracing the need for speed in modern logistics

“We learnt a big lesson: data is very powerful for how we make decisions. We’re trying to pull multiple data points now, and when we have spikes or difficulty in moving products around, the data is critical for us to make decisions on inventory levels, going back and seeing where we need to spend more money. (...) In essence, keep customers happy, keep costs low and keep everything flowing.”

“At Iron Mountain, we’ve got a unique position of building a 3PL. We have seen very rapid growth in the last two years. With that, we needed the structure, the people, the organisation and the right systems. When we looked at the inventory management system, we wanted something that could give us accuracy and real-time data. Not only to help our customers, reduce their overstock, but to run the operations efficiently, to make sure we have visibility of the warehouse and to optimise our warehouse space.”

“The real transformation happens when you take that raw data and turn it into actionable insights. With technologies like digital twins and AI, we can now not only collect data but analyse and leverage it to make faster, better decisions, ultimately driving efficiency across the entire supply chain.”
