Elemica, the leading supply chain operating network provider for the process industries, announces winning the 2013 Green Supply Chain Award from Supply & Demand Chain Executive. This is Elemica's fifth appearance on the prestigious list.
Elemica was chosen for streamlining the entire order fulfillment process for a large global manufacturer of integrated olefins and polymers.
"Elemica is proud to once again win this most significant award, as it recognizes our commitment to helping clients meet their sustainability goals of reducing carbon emissions, cutting costs, eliminating waste, and saving time," says John Blyzinskyj, Elemica chief executive officer. "By removing paper-based processes, clients lower energy usage, save water and trees, and lessen greenhouse gas emissions."
Elemica's Terminal & Warehouse solution within the Elemica Logistics Management Suite was utilized to automate manual processes around inventory, order entry, and shipment scheduling. Using SmartLink Application solutions, transactional barriers were removed for a seamless flow of information on electronic orders, inventory, and shipment instructions between the company and its trading partners. The result is a more streamlined order fulfillment process, shipment audit and visibility, reduction of errors and a uniform process for handling orders and shipment instructions to logistics service providers.
