What is the biggest challenge facing distribution managers? Many industry professionals believe it is the cost-effective coordination of products from multiple distribution centers so that a complete order can be delivered.
Pilot is meeting this challenge with the introduction of our Merge and Deliver service, that manages the assembly of products from various points of origin that are bound for a single destination. Products are shipped to a Pilot facility nearest your consignee, then assembled and delivered as a single shipment.
Reduces your need for multiple distribution centers to consolidate and stage shipments
Reduces your transportation costs because it virtually eliminates the need to ship material from one location to another, only to ship it again to its ultimate destination
Items are routed by the most economical means to make the scheduled delivery
Allows you to select various levels of service on each leg of transit to meet your desired delivery schedule
Pilot alerts you if items are not available in time for the scheduled shipment delivery date
