Key performance indicators (KPIs) are assigned benchmarks for evaluating progress toward your company goals. 对于托运人，使用您的 运输管理系统 to establish 和 track KPIs is crucial to underst和ing the strengths 和 weaknesses of your shipping operations 和 optimizing for the future.
决定跟踪哪些kpi可能很困难. That's why 十大菠菜台子, a leading third-party logistics (3PL) provider that offers a 全套的运输解决方案, has created a list of the most important TMS platform metrics you should be monitoring 和 detail why they are important to your company.
在您的TMS中分析货运kpi
Any effective transportation management system provides shippers with the information necessary to make informed decisions 和 determine the viability of current operations. 交通运输管理 KPIs identify areas of system efficiency 和 uncover those that need improvement. Underst和ing KPIs can help shippers know exactly what changes need to be made to improve operations 和 decrease costs. 需要跟踪的核心kpi包括:
每件货物的运费
This KPI is calculated by dividing the total costs for freight shipping by the number of units shipped during a defined time period. This metric is critical to underst和ing the average per-unit freight spend for your organization.
对外货运运输成本与总销售额的比较
To determine this metric, shippers must divide outbound freight costs by net sales. This allows your company to differentiate between inbound 和 outbound freight costs.
与进货运费相比
Calculating this metric is nearly identical to the outbound freight costs mentioned above. However, in this case, you would divide inbound freight costs by net sales.
运输时间
运输时间跟踪可以帮助您比较 预计装船时间 和 实际交货时间 对于你方的装运. This will allow you to make adjustments to your shipping strategies to ensure packages are delivered on time.
索赔与运费
分割因…造成的全部损失 货运索赔 by overall freight costs helps measure safe delivery for each shipper 和 carrier. 较高的数字暗示有改进的机会, 更低的数字可能会验证当前的策略.
货运计费准确性
This KPI is computed by dividing accurate freight bills by the number of freight bills in the period. The goal of this metric is to help you underst和 whether 和 how often you are being charged too much for freight services.
附加费用与总运费的比较
Failure to track accessorial charges inhibits freight shipping management capability. Keep accessorial fees as close to zero as possible 和 create processes that offset these charges in the first place.
卡车运力利用率百分比
Underst和ing how much capacity you utilize compared to available space on trucks can be determined by dividing the shipment weight by available shipping capacity. This gets tricky with more extensive, volume-based shipping, but it is possible. Bottom line, shippers should underst和 if utilizing more truck space would save them money.
模式选择与最佳使用相比
模式选择是另一个棘手的KPI. Focus on the shipments sent via optimal mode by total shipments sent. 很明显, shippers must know what the optimal shipping method is for each item, so it is best to evaluate the lowest-cost shipping mode over a set period of time.
每批货的停留时间
该KPI衡量等待和加载时间. This is important since you can be assessed dwell time fees by carriers. Extensive dwell time can also cause your shipments to be delayed. 有很多方法可以衡量这一点, but shippers can simply create a benchmark 和 make note of the number of shipments above that number. This will give you a concrete data point indicating how often your shipments surpass acceptable dwell times.
再交付次数
航空公司 can assess a fee if they must attempt a delivery more than once. Measure the number of times your shipments were assessed a redelivery fee compared to the overall number of shipments to get a health check on the accuracy of your 提单(提单) 以及其他过程.
运输损坏
Products that are damaged during transport may need to be replaced 和 redelivered — a compounding effect that will increase expenses. Determine how many products are damaged compared to overall shipments to identify the need for better packing procedures, 新的运营商或其他解决方案.
按时交付率
Determine what percentage of shipments are delivered on time compared to the overall number of shipments. 这是一个命令式度量. It will force you to analyze your entire freight shipping operation 和 your carrier 和 freight service selections.
Enhance Shipping Efficiency With Transportation Management System Data
航运效率取决于尽可能做出最佳决策. 运输管理系统实现了这一功能. 如果操作得当，可以为您的客户建立kpi TMS运输技术 能帮助你做出数据驱动的决策吗, eliminate uncertainty by auditing system performance 和 determine further if operational efficiency is resulting in expected gains.
