Streamline reverse logistics processes across multiple suppliers and geographies using a blockchain-based platform that enables efficient risk-free contracts with couriers and carriers, real-time collaboration, enhanced operational visibility, and auto-reconciliation of shipment linkages.
The surge of e-commerce activities has led to challenges in managing documentation, physical verification records, and data involved in the reverse logistics process involving product returns/recalls from customers from multiple geographies
Â
Organizations need to leverage emerging technologies like blockchain, AI, and Machine Learning in the Return Material Authorization (RMA) process to enhance value and minimize inefficiencies by addressing these pain points:
Inability to confirm that returned materials have reached the correct Distribution Centre (DC), leading to further asset loss
Inefficiencies in the RMA process, resulting from non-compliance with contracts, cause lost claims when customers coordinate stock returns with courier or carrier companies
Insufficient information for accurately claiming compensation from courier/carriers or insurance providers, impacting the recovery of lost productivity
Limited visibility in chargeback procedures related to RMA, with improvements potentially leading to increased accountability
