Table of Content : India’s logistics landscape is unlike any other; fragmented, diverse, and constantly on the move.
Amrit Cement, a leading cement manufacturer in Northeast India, operates a large-scale distribution network across one of the country’s most challenging terrains.
With an annual production capacity of 1.5 million metric tonnes from its integrated cement plant, supported by 22 strategically located plants and depots across the region, Amrit Cement manages a complex mix of direct plant-to-customer deliveries, warehouse dispatches, and inter-depot stock transfers.
The company moves thousands of shipments every month, navigating limited truck availability and hilly terrain, making operational efficiency and transparency critical for sustained growth.
Faster Vehicle Allocation
Reduction in Depot Turnaround Time
Freight Cost Transparency
Disputes in Freight Billing
Vehicle allocation relied on WhatsApp and calls to 10+ transporters, causing delays, inconsistencies, and frequent trip allocation disputes.
Freight rates varied ₹30–50/MT due to inconsistent negotiation and poor visibility, increasing costs and reducing overall profitability.
Lack of vehicle and gate activity visibility at 21 warehouses caused 3–4 hour depot turnaround delays.
Large orders required splitting into smaller deliveries, increasing operational complexity and demanding flexible dispatch planning.
Hilly terrain in Northeast India increased vehicle delays and false claims, creating high-risk zones for freight movement.
Manual invoice processing caused errors, delays, and disputes due to lack of unified systems for approvals and reconciliation.
An automated indent system with a shared dashboard reduced allocation time from 10–15 minutes to 1–2 minutes per shipment.
Contract management with reverse bidding enabled systematic rate comparison and transparent L1/L2 selection, ensuring cost-optimized freight allocation.
Gate-in/gate-out tracking, geofencing, and dwell-time monitoring across 22 depots reduced turnaround time by 55% and improved accountability.
Automated delivery order splitting handled partial shipments while generating future delivery orders, maintaining operational flexibility and dealer satisfaction.
Dual SIM + GPS tracking, geofencing, and stationary alerts improved ETAs and reduced false delay claims on risky routes.
Billing workflows were digitalized with auto-generated Lorry Receipts, ePOD integration, and GRN creation, ensuring transparency and dispute-free settlements.
