Supply Sensing
Short supply and service gaps at every stage of manufacturing and distribution are potential threats for all of supply, from raw materials to finished goods. The effects extend across internal operations, outsourced manufacturing, and distribution. E2open Supply Sensing helps companies determine the probability of material shortages and service shortfalls over time for the entire supply chain.

Vehicle Routing and Scheduling
Planning the optimal delivery route based on your available resources saves on transportation costs. Responding to disruptions to meet your customers’ expectations keeps them coming back. An efficient, automated transport and delivery application, E2open Vehicle Routing and Scheduling uses a powerful algorithm to determine the ideal plan, provides visibility for tracking progress along the way, and can adjust the plan to maintain service levels if a disruption occurs. Dashboard visibility and proactive notifications keep your customers up to date on delivery arrival times.

Logistics Visibility
Tracking in-transit cargo in real time rather than merely receiving periodic milestone updates has become increasingly critical. Without reliable real-time visibility, companies are blind to costly disruptions and vulnerable to the fallout. E2open Logistics Visibility application leverages data from various sources to pinpoint the status of shipments so leaders can proactively manage potential disruptions.

Duty Management
Reducing customs duties and tariffs can significantly raise margins. However, most organizations struggle to manually identify and qualify products for free trade agreements (FTAs) and duty savings programs. With e2open Duty Management application, importers can automatically identify relevant duty, tax and tariff reduction programs and fulfill all documentation requirements with minimal manual effort. Importers get a streamlined process that reduces the burden of complex documentation while dramatically lowering import costs with less risk of errors.

Transportation Management
With shipping making up about 15% of the entire product cost, transportation management is an important element to the bottom line. It is a careful dance of strategy to coordinate with all logistic partners to get goods where they need to go on time. E2open Transportation Management application is a user-friendly transportation management system (TMS) that optimizes shipment cost and speed and connects you to partners locally or around the globe.

Due Diligence Screening
Global supply chains are one of the most collaborative environments in an organization, thus inherently the most vulnerable. In an era of elevated enforcement, conducting a thorough screening of party, commodity and destination against hundreds of lists will protect businesses from economic and reputational risk. With e2open Due Diligence Screening, companies gain confidence and efficiency in the screening process to transact with new and existing partners confidently.

Manufacturing Collaboration
Manufacturers and Brand Owners are facing a growing list of challenges when engaging with contract manufacturers to make themselves more agile and resilient. The global growth has made obtaining real-time visibility into production and manufacturing a challenge that if achieved, can provide real benefits through a holistic view of production performance across internal and external manufacturing facilities.

Supply Planning
Plan smarter. Respond faster. Deliver more. In today’s fast-paced manufacturing environment, supply chain agility isn’t optional—it’s essential. E2open Supply Planning empowers discrete manufacturers to create feasible, profitable plans that align with real-world constraints. Whether you’re managing internal production or coordinating with outsourced partners, our platform helps you anticipate disruptions, optimize resources, and meet customer demand with confidence. End-to-end visibility meets intelligent automation Say goodbye to fragmented planning and hello to a unified, rules-based approach. E2open leverages real-time data across all supply tiers to deliver multi-tier plans that respect capacity, material availability, and business priorities. With built-in automation and exception management, planners can focus on strategic decisions while the system handles the complexity—reducing costs, improving forecast accuracy, and boosting productivity. Built for complexity. Designed for results. From what-if scenario modeling to automated enforcement of business policies, E2open gives you the tools to respond to change without missing a beat. Whether you’re […]

Bookings
When shipping goods globally, companies usually need to use multiple carriers. This means submitting booking requests and shipment instructions across various platforms—and often using emails or phone calls as well. The complicated efforts that are required result in delays and increased overhead. E2open’s Bookings application simplifies the process with a one-stop connection to an extensive global network of ocean, air, truck and rail carriers. Seamlessly execute multimode shipments through a single portal by leveraging key capabilities like these: Handle all shipment modes with one connection to all carriers and non-vessel-operating common carriers (NVOCCs) Allow carriers to receive bookings and respond with confirmations via the same portal Transmit carrier booking requests, shipment instructions and confirmations electronically Create shipment bookings from scratch, predefined templates or existing booking requests
