LOG-NET releases platform update

   The supply chain software developer LOG-NET on Monday released an update to its international supply chain management and global trade management platform.
   LOG-NET Version 7.0 provides intuitive drag and drop dashboards, pre-configured business intelligence components, integrated social messaging, new six sigma ready statistical trade lane assessment, new compliance capability and enhanced visibility milestones from order negotiation through to final distribution, the company said.
   “LOG-NET has always focused, and has had considerable success, on providing logistics solutions configured around the user,” said CEO and founder John Motley. “With LOG-NET 7.0 we deliver an unprecedented set of logistics capabilities in the cloud. We combine these capabilities with a beautiful and intuitive interface that will open up sophisticated logistics collaboration to a very large user community in the supplier, forwarder, carrier, distribution and customer markets.”
   The drag and drop dashboards allows users to configure menu options, functions, and fields, as well as optimize layouts for mobile or tablet use.
   The trade lane analytical features include capabilities to optimize the impacts of weekends, holidays, terminal free time, inventory levels and equipment usage costs when determining the expected time of arrival, and priority, of goods in transit, the company said.
