A3i Shipment Planning and Execution (A3iSPE) service is a dynamic part of our system, designed to give you total control and visibility over your supply chain while eliminating manual processes, time and costs.

Every order becomes a part of this system, which works first to consolidate and optimize shipment planning and select a carrier based on your existing contracts and best rates, reducing your freight costs and increasing efficiency.

The system then works dynamically to continually optimize each shipment through every step of the supply chain, ensuring optimal mitigation of any issues that may arise, while simultaneously alerting you and giving the option of manual intervention.
