The problem of profitable CPG distribution is too large and complex for human analysts to solve, because it exceeds human cognition.

Managing Tier 1 and Tier 2 retailer requirements is no easy task for CPG distributors. In fact, the job is nearly impossible when you also consider:

  • product perishability
  • the need to accurately calculate ATP inventories
  • price competition
  • truckload capacities
  • handling & labor requirements

The good news? There are solutions for this complex problem. Download Blue Yonder’s white paper4 to learn more about:

  • balancing service goals and financial objectives
  • flexible, platform-agnostic order management
  • autonomous rescheduling to optimize OTIF rate
  • allocating product strategically across channels and retailers
