The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a surge in e-commerce and digital transformation. Increasing demand for e-commerce deliveries will be durable as people have already been shifting the way of buying goods to online shopping, leading to higher demands for high-quality logistics services. While customers are increasingly expecting transparency and accuracy in the supply chain, e-commerce and logistics companies may face some of the following daily challenges:
- High cost to maintain NCR paper stock and to own the line printer
- Time consuming for staff to scan, file and retrieve documents manually
- Human errors in orders and document processing, affecting business operations and company reputation
- Hand-written documents are outdated and inefficient, e.g. manual amendment of delivery notes
To help logistics enterprises seize the e-commerce opportunities, FUJIFILM Business Innovation offers a range of solutions that supports supply chain automation and streamlines the business process. The benefits include increased efficiency and productivity, reduction in human errors, better visibility, and faster reconciliation.
With FUJIFILM Business Innovation’s RPA solutions, repetitive and tedious tasks can be automated for greater accuracy and consistency. RPA can also shorten the whole processing time by combining data with customer’s Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) such as SAP.
With FUJIFILM Business Innovation’s AI-powered cloud platform, client data from logistics delivery notes can be captured as documents and saved via OCR. This can minimize the potential human mistakes and time spent on handling these tedious data input tasks.
