Purchase Order Management Services
Laufer Group International offers a comprehensive Purchase Order Management System. PO data can be transmitted to us via standard EDI protocols, and is made visible via our secure web based freight management tracking system.
From initial order placement through to final delivery, we offer real time event based PO management. In relation to your PO number, we offer 4 additional layers of data (SKU, Product, Quantity, Type), all of which can be tracked independently. This level of visibility enables complete inventory control during the supply chain, regardless of status or mode of transport.
Our tracking system allows reports to be downloaded into Excel, from which you can manipulate and format to your own unique requirements.
Our PO Management and web tracking systems are proprietary, as such we own all development and programming rights. Our team of in-house IT Specialists can offer guidance and assistance while navigating the complexities of PO Management and electronic data exchanges.
Vendor Management
Based on specific and predetermined PO events (ex-factory, PO ready, ETD, ETA, etc) we will manage and report your vendors compliance. Exceptions will be visible in our secure web portal, enabling you to better manage your suppliers and orders.
Commercial documentation, packing lists, certificates of origin, etc, will be collected and reviewed for compliance by our origin personnel. Documents which do not conform to requirements will be identified and reported. Bills of Lading/Forwarder Cargo Receipt issuance will also be managed by our personnel.
Warehouse/Inventory Management
Our portfolio of origin services includes warehouse management and DC bypass capabilities. Inventory control, PO/SKU level manipulation/consolidation, pick & pack services are offered in all major origin/gateways. PO 'take down' information is available via our portal, as is replenishment of PO/SKUs.
Virtual Office
Our extensive overseas office network uses our proprietary freight management system for all shipping functions. This control allows us to not only manage your consignments, but also act as your representatives at origin. We can create commercial and shipping documents on your behalf, manage your vendors and buying agents, and offer QC assistance (conditions apply). We can establish and enforce controls on your behalf, just like having your own office at origin.
