5 Current State of the 3PL Market Most Customers are Satisfied, But Improvement Opportunities Continue to Exist 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% IT Capabilities Necessary Element of 3PL Expertise Satisfied With 3PL IT Capabilities Source: th Annual Third Party Logistics Study: Views from the Customers: Georgia Tech, CapGemini, Oracle, DHL 5

6 Transportation Management: Outsource or In House? Logistics Excellence Is it a commodity vs. competitive advantage? Control vs. Easy button Are you maintaining control of your network operations? Visibility vs. IT Investment Is it sufficient, or do you make do with what you get? Logistics Expertise Do you have experts in-house? Cost vs. Value Are you getting what you pay for?

7 Different Models Available All In House People/ Process In House Technologies In House Hybrid In House Outsource Hybrid Outsource In House All Outsourced Outsource Outsource Note: Different regions and divisions can have different approaches

8 How Does Oracle Help? A World Class TMS called Oracle Transportation Management Carrier and Rate Management Logistics Order Management Transportation Planning and Optimization Shipment Execution Visibility and Event Management Financial Settlement End-to-End Comprehensive Transportation Management Solution - Rate procurement - Rate maintenance - Carrier scorecarding - Contract and insurance monitoring - Order capture - Change order management - Requirements forecasting - Shipment Planning - Dock appointment scheduling - Container Requirements Optimization - Load Configuration - Cooperative Routing - Carrier communication - Shipment booking and tendering - Re-Planning - Appointment Scheduling - Proactive Exception Management - Shipment, Order, SKU visibility - Track and Trace - Analytics and Reporting - Freight bill audits - Cost allocation - Accruals - Customer billing 8

9 Functional Innovation OTM roadmap to additional value Fleet & Asset Management Manage transportation assets (drivers, trucks, trailers, containers, totes, etc) Global Trade Management Manage all aspects of crossborder transactions Visibility, regulatory compliance, chain of custody, documentation Environmental Sustainability Measurement and minimization of impacts

10 Proof Point: Global Heavy Equipment Manufacturer Scenario Results US was outsourced to 3PL, little control over inbound transportation Wanted to reduce freight costs and increase visibility by streamlining and controlling logistics operations in-house Needed a TMS to support this strategy Reduced Freight Costs Inbound and outbound transaction costs Lower headcount Lower cost carrier selection Payment based on actual shipped weight Increased Visibility Supplier communications Shipment data Rates, freight payment and damage claims Increased Control Carrier KPIs: Service level, cost, quality Supplier compliance to core carriers

15 Global Footprint

16 The Business Challenge Why In-sourcing? The decision to outsource was made based on forecast savings; Savings never materialized, the opposite occurred costs increased Service provider did not understand business = higher rates Freight under management fees exorbitant Efficiencies never delivered Service provider had poor carrier selection, evaluation process Delivery quality and customer satisfaction declined Challenges included selecting and implementing a new operating system within 3 months; Rebuilding processes and procedures that were lost when function was outsourced; Team concluded best solution was integration to Oracle E-Business Suite

17 How did we start? First Phase: Start in Western Distribution Region Bring up a new building Hire and train staff Transfer inventory Install new TMS and WMS Need to be done in 3 months Outbound was priority Parcel, LTL, TL, Specialized Delivery

18 Why OTM? Tech Enabler for In-Sourcing Transportation Management Ability to manage all transport modes including Ocean vessels Small package Less than truckload Full truckload Visibility & Event Management Transportation Management Transportation Planning Freight Settlement Business Intelligence
