Technically a 4PL (Fourth Party Logistics provider) is a non-asset based company that provides logistics consulting services and is contracted to the primary client and one or more partners, says Compu-Clearing sales and marketing manager Moshe Zulberg. “The 4PL will assemble the resources, technology and the array of service providers necessary to create and maintain the best possible supply chain solution with an unbiased approach for their customer.” At Compu-Clearing, the company’s CargoWise One delivers one platform to 4PLs capable of managing and operating the entire supply chain solution, Zulberg told FTW. “Cargowise One is a modular-based system, able to cater for individual 4PL requirements. All modules integrate, making reporting, visibility and productivity more efficient,” he added. The system provides a range of applications – from integrated accounting, client order management, thirdparty and fourth-party warehousing and process and communication integration to customisable document and form sets and a large set of front- and backoffice integrations - all out of the box. “The 100 000 licences held across 5 000 sites in 105 countries will guarantee 4PLs a tried and tested solution,” he said.
