disruptions.

electric drivetrains share space on production lines, while the hub of battery production has shifted to different regions. The rapid evolution of zero-emission technologies demands swift and seamless adaptation.

As customer demands and expectations rise, the number of parts in vehicles has surged, requiring component manufacturers to outpace even the OEMs in production volume.

Amidst this industry-wide transformation, Antonio Fondevilla, Global Automotive Vertical Head of Esgl, discusses the critical role logistics plays in navigating this disruptive landscape.

Creating a decarbonized automotive supply chain is challenging due to the complexity of sourcing thousands of components globally.

At ESGL, we ensure your automotive logistics operate seamlessly by keeping your components, technology, and raw materials readily available to maintain your assembly line’s efficiency. With end-to-end integrated supply chains managed through a single point of contact, you gain complete control over your logistics flow. Our digitally connected solutions provide real-time updates on cargo movement and status, enabling quicker and more informed decisions.

Throughout every stage, our team, technology, and network are committed to ensuring a smooth cargo flow—from sourcing for gigafactories to delivering showroom-ready vehicles to their final destinations.

We help you optimize overheads by reducing unnecessary expediting costs, accelerating processes, and improving incident management. Our intuitive 4PL platform enhances visibility and transforms raw data into actionable insights for faster decision-making.

Quicker decisions reduce lead times across fragmented functions, ensuring your cargo moves smoothly and efficiently, significantly cutting costs.

As assembly lines grow more complex, producing both internal combustion and electric vehicles, partnering with Esgl ensures your components arrive at the right place at the right time. We achieve this by reducing variability, optimizing cargo flow through careful planning and coordination, and reviewing lead times.

We analyze critical factors such as transit time, entry points, resilience, product value, and transportation modes to provide you with a comprehensive digital view of your end-to-end supply chain. This enables you to make informed decisions quickly.

Additionally, with NeoNav—our advanced visibility platform integrated with E2Open capabilities—you gain enhanced transparency through a multi-tier inventory view, offering greater control, speed, and resilience throughout your supply chain.

The vast number of components required for a finished vehicle places significant pressure on sourcing and transporting critical automotive technology and hardware from various global locations. In an era of frequent disruptions, relying on a fragmented supply chain with multiple vendors can be risky.

At Esgl, our continuous improvement processes integrate data, strategy, and resources to ensure your components travel through the most optimized supply chain networks. Our reliable ocean and inland solutions, combined with alternative transport modes, are designed to reach markets—whether near or far, large or small, urban or remote—with exceptional visibility, control, and timeliness at every step.

Outsourcing your automotive supply chain can often lead to concerns about control, reliability, and visibility, raising questions about key values such as cost and time.

However, by partnering with Esgl, you can be confident that we provide comprehensive support to ensure you maintain effective planning and control over your automotive supply chain. This collaboration helps you make faster decisions and reduce costs.

Choose Esgl for a connected, simplified, and integrated end-to-end supply chain experience, backed by our expertise, processes, network, and technology.
