The Daily Struggle of Tracking Product Flows: What if it Could Be Simpler?

Every day, teams juggle endless email threads, shared Excel files, manual follow-ups and approvals. Despite their best efforts, errors still slip through. A missed delay on a supplier shipment, an incomplete delivery note, a transport invoice mistake — these seemingly small issues can quickly snowball into real disruptions.

When tracking becomes a roadblock

Without clear visibility on key milestones — supplier dispatch, packing list shared, invoice submitted, ETD, ETA — it becomes increasingly difficult to coordinate smoothly between internal teams and external partners. As a result, decisions are delayed, flows are disrupted, and logistics plans have to be adjusted at the last minute.

And the impact is real:

• Missed deadlines
• Increased pressure on  teams
• Rising transportation costs
• Customer satisfaction at risk

Meanwhile, teams spend most of their time piecing together a fragmented view of operations — instead of proactively managing the flow of goods.

A common scenario: Transport invoice control

Let’s take a familiar example. A company manually checks 100% of its transport invoices. It’s a thorough process — but at what cost?

“Hours spent every week going through everything line by line just to catch a few isolated errors.
What if that time could be used differently?”

With automated controls in place, every invoice is still verified — but discrepancies are flagged automatically. Teams can focus only on the exceptions, freeing up time and reducing risk.

“As a result, the team only reviews problematic invoices, saves valuable time, and can finally focus on higher-value tasks.”

Freeing teams to focus on flow performance

This isn’t just about adopting new software. It’s about making everyday work simpler and more efficient. What supply chain teams need is an environment that supports real operational control:

• Centralized product and order data — updated in real time, all in one place
• End-to-end visibility across product flows, from order to delivery
• Automated admin tasks and reminders to reduce manual effort and error risk

“No more endless back-and-forth emails and spreadsheets. With a centralized platform, everything you need is available in one click, in real time. No more wasting hours digging through disconnected systems.”

What it changes on the ground

“For the teams, this transformation has completely changed how they work. Before, they spent 80% of their time just updating data. Today, they’re reaping the benefits of a smarter approach — focusing their time on analysis and decision-making.”
— Véronique Tassain, Isotoner

“For example, I can instantly spot which orders are due to be handed over to the carrier in the next few days and are still missing a packing list or invoice from the supplier. These operational alerts help us focus on priority issues and take the right action to resolve them.”
— CMP

These aren’t just quotes — they’re real indicators of what happens when teams have the right tools to manage product flows. Time is no longer lost chasing information. Instead, it’s reinvested in decision-making, issue resolution, and continuous improvement.
