The following are a few examples of the utilization of information systems in logistics services.
Ocean import related system
For imported goods, once Mitsubishi Logistics obtains information from the customer, we manage information about
transport status per B/L (bill of landing) such as ocean transport, customs clearance and, particularly for goods imported
by ocean containers, delivery status to the delivery place or our warehousing facility through utilizing our system.
We can also provide updated information to customers via the Internet.
Warehousing / distribution center operations system
Mitsubishi Logistics' information system supports inventory management in the storage / distribution center, sorting
according to delivery destination, and delivery arrangements using the optimum transport method.
Online shipping orders obtained from the customer via EDI are directly entered into the system and handled accurately and
rapidly.
We use a specialized system for delicate cargo, such as pharmaceutical products, to provide the optimum service to meet particular
handling requirements.
Document management related system
Documents received from the customer are managed in boxes or other appropriate units. Mitsubishi Logistics uses a
system that provides comprehensive document management including shipping / delivery orders, content searches and management
of retention period all via the Internet.
The customer is notified in advance by mail as the expiration of the retention period approaches, on a date set by the customer.
We also provide solution processing for document disposal.
Internet-based inventory information management system
Mitsubishi Logistics' inventory information management system lightens the load of logistics operations for the customer.
The system enables the customer to make inventory inquiries, place shipping orders and download monthly inventory data /
shipping data by item, etc., via the Internet.
For imported goods, management by customs clearance status is also available in this system.
Internet-based cargo information management system
This system enables the customer to view the delivery / arrival status of the goods shipped from the warehouse / distribution center via the Internet. Delivery status inquiry based on the individual delivery vehicle is also available.
