Alpha Augmented Services collaboration with SEKO Logistics.
One exciting client collaboration that SEKO is undertaking utilizes new technology to tackle an old problem – packing efficiency. Statistics vary, but more broadly, they agree there are double-digit percentages of “air” being shipped around the world. This is often due simply to poor (or no) planning with container utilization in mind. Working with Alpha Augmented Services, SEKO and several clients are looking to make significant inroads to improving respective packing configurations, which in turn will deliver cost and carbon savings.
Alpha’s proven success in this space includes modeling for a global manufacturing client, with over 17,000 airfreight shipments/year, that saved the company $16 million in freight costs and 40 million metric tons of CO2 per year. SEKO believes it can use this technology to provide similar benefits to our client base.
