FAQs

1. What enables third-party logistics (3PL) companies to expand rapidly while ensuring client satisfaction? 

A streamlined 3PL service facilitates swift client acquisition and growth. As 3PLs expand, they encounter new challenges, necessitating a robust software platform for enhanced client communication and work-sharing capabilities. This eliminates common barriers that impede long-term growth.

2. How do businesses assess a 3PL provider?

The global supply chain has undergone significant transformation, prompting the 3PL industry to evolve and offer enhanced features and services to meet changing demands.

Key considerations for many brands include:

Transparency and communication:
Maintaining open communication channels is vital when outsourcing inventory management and order fulfillment. A vendor portal simplifies this process and fosters strong client relationships.

Meeting key metrics and KPIs:
Success metrics like on-time delivery, accurate order fulfillment, and real-time stock availability showcase the reliability of 3PL services.

Value and cost-effective solutions:
Clients seek hassle-free inventory management and cost-effective order fulfillment. Prioritizing efficiency and reduced shipping costs demonstrates the true value of 3PL services.

Flexibility:
Advanced client needs, such as kitting, lot management, and integration with third-party systems, require flexible service offerings. Our 3PL platform offers core competencies along with a robust feature set to accommodate diverse client requirements.

3. What differentiates a 3PL from a 4PL?

A 3rd party logistics company, or 3PL, provides warehousing and distribution services to other organizations. Traditionally, companies managed their own warehouses, but outsourcing to a 3PL has become more common due to technological advancements and changing economic conditions. With the rise of e-commerce, companies now have the flexibility to store inventory in multiple locations, enhancing fulfillment and supply chain efficiency.

On the other hand, a 4PL is a logistics services provider offering a blend of services utilizing their logistics facilities and integrating them into a network. Working with a 4PL allows access to a large network benefiting from economies of scale to reduce logistics costs. Managed by expert logistics management firms, 4PLs ensure a reliable and cohesive logistics experience through a network of partners.

Software platforms like FarEye facilitate management of challenging aspects such as centralized stock availability, network-wide inventory insights, product distribution across multiple facilities, financial accounting for varied services, and more.

4. What is 3PL warehouse management system?

A 3PL warehouse management system is software utilized by companies to oversee inventory, distribution, and order fulfillment for various 3PL clients.

It serves both companies outsourcing their warehouse operations to a 3PL and the logistics provider offering third-party logistics services to those clients.

The FarEye 3PL platform integrates with a 3PL warehouse management system commonly used by third-party logistics companies. It tracks client inventory, streamlines order fulfillment processes, coordinates shipping via parcel carriers or trucking companies, and monitors costs for billing purposes.
