DHL in collaboration with R360 is supporting the Logistics Cluster in monitoring supply chains


Deutsche Post DHL Group (DPDHL) and Resilience360 are providing the Global Logistics Cluster, which is led by the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP), access to Resilience360 (R360).

R360 offers a comprehensive suite of supply chain risk management solutions. The Global Logistics Cluster is part of a humanitarian cluster system and provides coordination, information management and shares assets through the facilitation of access to common logistics services, including for humanitarian organisations working to deliver relief supplies to the front lines of the pandemic as quickly as possible. Disruptions to supply chains caused by COVID-19 has made this process more complicated. Therefore, DPDHL, in collaboration with R360, is supporting the Logistics Cluster in monitoring supply chains for the transport of humanitarian and health cargo.

With the information from the cloud-based Software as a Service platform R360, the Logistics Cluster is able to visualise humanitarian supply chains. This enables them to determine what risks a supply chain may be impacted by, so that contingency plans can be put in place, if necessary. R360 also recently launched a specific COVID-19 Intelligence Centre to give an overview of air, sea and land border traffic restrictions, as well as lockdown measures implemented worldwide. This provides both humanitarian organisations and companies with real-time intelligence to adapt to the impact of the Coronavirus crisis on supply chains and get vital aid to where it is needed.
