Inhance Supply Chain Solutions Awarded Platinum at the 2024 Logistics Achiever Awards
We are thrilled to announce that Inhance Supply Chain Solutions, in partnership with Twinsaver Group, has been honoured with a Platinum Award at the prestigious 2024 Logistics Achiever Awards.
This accolade recognises our commitment to excellence and innovation in the logistics industry, setting a new benchmark in supply chain transformation.
Transforming Twinsaver’s Supply Chain: A Strategic Partnership
Twinsaver faced a set of complex challenges that put significant pressure on profitability and operational efficiency. Rising input costs, misaligned objectives, and outdated systems were pushing logistics costs to an unsustainable 12.8% of sales. With profitability at stake, Twinsaver sought an agile, end-to-end solution that would not only reduce costs but enhance operational resilience.
Inhance stepped in as a strategic 4PL partner, implementing a comprehensive suite of solutions that addressed every stage of the supply chain. Central to this transformation was the establishment of a Supply Chain Control Tower (SCCT), providing real-time visibility and streamlined control over logistics activities. Our approach integrated Transportation Management System (TMS), Warehouse Management System (WMS), and Yard Management System (YMS) to form a cohesive network, enabling Twinsaver to manage logistics seamlessly from production to delivery.
Driving Results and Setting New Standards
The results of this collaborative effort were outstanding, delivering measurable impacts across multiple metrics:
Logistics Cost Reduction
Logistics costs were reduced from 12.8% to 10% of sales, surpassing the initial target of 10.5%. This equates to a net saving of R37 million, significantly enhancing Twinsaver’s profitability.
Enhanced Reliability & Service Levels
Manufacturing reliability and customer service improved by over 10%, reinforcing Twinsaver’s position in a competitive market.
Environmental Impact
Fuel consumption and CO2 emissions were reduced by 11%, contributing to a more sustainable logistics footprint.
Through these improvements, Inhance and Twinsaver have set a new industry standard for cost-effective and environmentally conscious logistics solutions.
