Market and currency volatility
Variable commodity composition, descriptions, and quality
Burdensome administration and regulatory demands
Complex multi-party relationships (e.g. buyers, sellers, third party contractors, etc.)
Multi-layered transportation needs including multimodal transport and partners
Globalized trade across many time zones and languages

Given this complexity, volatility, and often tight trading margins, it is critical to have full visibility in real-time on your trading operations and the underlying activities across logistics and operations.
