Toyota Mobility Solutions Philippines (TMSPH) launches one of its flagship new mobility solutions that aims to digitalize process and strengthen the operating efficiency and promote growth for local businesses.
TMSPH’s new Logistics Platform is designed to automate daily planning, which is responsible for delivery routing, loading optimization, vehicle assignment, and trip booking. The system is also capable of tracking delivery statuses in real-time for ease in the daily business operations.
In the initial phase of the digital platform’s launch, TMSPH has started supporting Mida Food Distributors Inc. in its logistics operations. Mida Food is a provider of quality frozen seafood products in the restaurant industry, you may recognize it through one of its household retail brands named, Pacific Bay.
By using the Logistic’s Platform of TMSPH, Mida Food can address the limitations in its delivery operations. Such as, route planning difficulties due to a wide client base, truck capacity constraints due to demand and product load, and lack of a way to oversee delivery progress for extra security and assessment.
The main way the Logistics Platform addresses these challenges is through streamlining administration, and generate ideal delivery routes that takes into account the variable delivery conditions. This allows Mida Food to reach its goal of achieving optimal truck utilization which is a factor to consider in lowering delivery costs. Drivers will also be equipped with a mobile app for real-time sending of delivery status updates to Mida Food.
Prior to the platform’s initial launch, TMSPH and Mida Food conducted a ground operation study in an effort to improve end-to-end processes, these include, order taking to warehouse operation, and finally, dispatch. During the whole process, TMSPH applied Toyota’s quality management principles and effective practices, taking cues from its long history of manufacturing, warehouse management, and logistics distribution here in the country.
