How Our Platform Revolutionizes End-to-End Supply Chain Visibility
Introduction
The future of the logistics industry is undergoing a radical transformation, driven by the advent of advanced technologies and the growing demand for transparency and efficiency. Pakistan, the 5th largest country in terms of population just surpassed 245 million people as per https://www.worldometers.info/world-population/pakistan-population/. With this increasing population, the dynamics of business and the service expectations of the customers are also changing. As of now, the freight forwarding and logistics industry is more than 65% offline that is the systems existing in the industry are not well connected, and have manual paperwork involved with a lot of repetition. The current services offered in the industry are not so comprehensive and integrated which is making the processes and procedures complex in the industry. Due to this the service levels offered by service providers (freight forwarders and NVOCCs) are not so encouraging. This is majorly because of the inefficient processes and systems. PSW – Pakistan Single Window has brought a significant change by automating some 80+ governmental departments that were once not integrated and used to take a lot of time to process requests causing delays and higher lead times. PSW is trying to facilitate traders and cross-border trade through its platform under the guidelines set forth by the United Nations. As technology is exponentially growing there is an intense need for systems to be integrated for fast and better processing
