Presentation

Discovering opportunities for better sustainability in reverse logistics

Supply chain sustainability is a popular topic, but it’s typically centered on forward logistics. Learn how reverse logistics technology can manage the entire product returns process according to sustainability goals and priorities. Workflows can be configured to reflect priorities such as recycling or strict parameters for disposal. Return-to-vendor capabilities set rules for consolidating return shipments, saving on freight costs and transportation emissions. Customers can be encouraged to avoid shipping and instead return items to a local partner with return-on-behalf-of capabilities. Reverse logistics is a critical part of a sustainable supply chain, helping companies execute their goals and back up their sustainability claims.
