Punctuality, shipment issues, transit times and costs provide useful information for identifying problems and deciding what to improve.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><a href=\"https:\/\/apicshouston.starchapter.com\/blog\/Logistics-KPI\">ASCM, the Association for Supply Chain Management<\/a>, discusses these metrics as tools for identifying improvement opportunities. To get started, we suggest a straightforward approach focused on four areas.<\/p>\n<h2>Which indicators should you monitor?<\/h2>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th>Indicator<\/th>\n<th>What it helps you assess<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>On-time delivery<\/td>\n<td>The percentage of deliveries scheduled for a period that arrive within the agreed timeframe.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Shipments with issues<\/td>\n<td>The proportion of shipments analysed that have damage, shortages, documentation errors or other recorded problems.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Transit time<\/td>\n<td>The time between collection and delivery of the goods.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Average cost per shipment<\/td>\n<td>The total transport cost for the shipments analysed, divided by the number of shipments in that group.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Each indicator answers a different question. Reviewing them together helps assess both service performance and the resources used.<\/p>\n<h2>Define your criteria before measuring<\/h2>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">To assess punctuality, record the agreed delivery deadline or time slot. Use a completed reporting period and apply the same criteria when comparing results.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">For example, if 95 of the 100 scheduled deliveries arrive on time, the on-time delivery rate is 95%. This is a calculation example: interpreting it also requires understanding what happened with the remaining five deliveries.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">When reviewing issues, classify their causes and distinguish affected shipments from the total number of problems. A single shipment may have several issues.<\/p>\n<h2>Compare equivalent operations<\/h2>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Group results by route, destination, service type or cargo characteristics. This helps explain differences between operations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">For average costs, apply consistent criteria to the expenses included and compare shipments with similar characteristics. You can explore this further in our article on <a href=\"https:\/\/subitur.es\/en\/hidden-costs-in-freight-transport-and-how-to-reduce-them\/\">hidden transport costs<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">For transit times, also review the cases that differ most from the usual duration. An average can conceal significant delays affecting individual shipments.<\/p>\n<h2>Turn data into action<\/h2>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Set up regular reviews and choose a specific improvement: adjust an appointment, correct shipment information or strengthen coordination with the recipient. Then check whether the results change.<\/p>\n<p>At Subitur, we provide <a href=\"https:\/\/subitur.es\/en\/servicios\/\">transport and logistics services<\/a> with personalised support. <a href=\"https:\/\/subitur.es\/en\/contact\/\"><strong>Tell us what your business needs<\/strong><\/a> and we will assess the right solution for your goods.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Logistics KPIs help you review transport services using comparable data.
