Syntel’s Logistics Practice 

Logistics is a complex and extremely critical function, with real-time flows of information and physical goods. Third Party Logistics (3PL) is gaining increasing ground in a global economy where companies source various elements of their value chain to external providers so they can focus more on their core competencies.

Information Technology is central to solving some of the most pressing challenges in the 3PL business, including exceptions handling, supply chain integration and optimization and increased transparency in the flow of goods and information.

Syntel has extensive experience delivering IT solutions to logistics providers in 3PL and the following business areas:

• Warehouse Management Systems
• Package Shipment
• Transportation Management Systems
• Supply Chain & Distribution
• Freight Management

Syntel crafts each solution around its deep understanding of the issues facing firms across planning, scheduling and delivery. Our combined expertise in logistics and several other industries give us a unique set of skills and intelligence to help 3PLs succeed and provide more integrated logistics services to their clients.

The illustration below gives a brief overview of solutions we have developed for leading logistics providers across the spectrum of industry operations.

Testing Solutions for Logistics - Eliminating the Bottleneck

Some of the leading logistics companies find that applications testing is often a bottleneck and slows down the introduction of new services in a highly competitive marketplace. Syntel has dedicated Test Centers of Excellence that serve as offshore “test factories” for some of our key logistics clients, illustrated below. These factories have been instrumental in eliminating those bottlenecks!
