Case Studies
YAMATO HELPS JST CORPORATION SIMPLIFY ITS TRADE AND LOGISTICS OPERATIONS AND IMPROVE THE ASSET EFFICIENCY OF ITS U.S. INVENTORY
Summary :
YAMATO streamlines trading and receiving/shipping operations with advanced systems and mechanisms to reduce JST's total logistics costs, expand its U.S. operations, and improve convenience for end-users.
Backstory :
Due to the long transit time from overseas factories to the U.S., JST had warehouses at multiple U.S. locations, and they were performing trading and shipping operations with each in order to supply products to end-users on time. In addition to the challenge of improving asset efficiency at their own facilities, the burden of indirect logistics operations, such as dealing with overseas factories and logistics providers, was also increasing..
Solution :
Yamato developed a trading and inventory management system and introduced it to Yamato warehouses in the U.S. and exporting countries where overseas factories are located. The system systemized trading operations, warehousing, and inventory management, which had previously been handled by JST. As a result, JST was able to realize the goal of consolidating their U.S. warehouses, visualizing shipping information and arrival schedule information of imported cargo, and converting to offshore inventory operation. The Yamato LA warehouse was used as an import gateway to promote direct shipments to a centralized depot on the Mexican border, simplifying operations for the U.S. sales company and improving convenience for end users by reducing delivery lead time.
Results :
By simplifying trading and shipping operations and optimizing logistics, YAMATO has contributed to the enhancement of JST's corporate value by providing an environment that allows JST to focus on its core business of R&D, production, and sales.
