What is AX4 Logistics Software?
AX4 is a cloud-based logistics platform that optimizes supply chain operations through end-to-end transparency and data-driven decision-making. By digitizing and automating logistics processes, AX4 enables organizations to achieve higher performance, improved supply chain visibility, and increased operational efficiency.
Why AX4?
AX4 enables efficient communication and seamless information sharing across your supply chain through a centralized, cloud-based collaboration platform. With AX4 control tower solutions, organizations can consolidate and replace isolated, stand-alone logistics applications, streamlining workflows and improving overall supply chain management.
Seamless integration with existing IT environments allows AX4 to serve as a unified interface between diverse systems and supply chain stakeholders. This connectivity supports reliable planning and execution for downstream processes, including warehousing, production, manufacturing, and distribution to customer sites.
AX4 automates the generation and transmission of key logistics documents, including pickup orders, delivery notes, waybills, and shipping labels, for both inbound and outbound transport operations. Advanced rule-based validations and process automations accelerate logistics workflows, ensure operational continuity, and optimize billing and rollout procedures.
