Day 2 of diving into Logistics and Supply Chain Industry as a Data Analyst🚚
Today’s focus: The "pre-game" of logistics. If you don't nail Procurement and Supplier Management, your downstream data is just noise. Here’s the breakdown for my fellow techies:-
1) Procurement
It’s not just "shopping" it’s the strategic acquisition of everything a business needs to run. In data terms, think of it as your "Input Layer."
• Direct: Raw materials for the product (engine parts)
• Indirect: Operational needs (office coffee, laptops)
2) Supplier Management
This is where the magic (and the data) happens. It’s not just who you buy from-it’s how they perform. As an analyst, I track:
-Supplier lead times
-Defect rates
-Cost variance
...the goal?
Move from “I think this supplier is okay” to “The data shows 98% on-time delivery.” That’s the value we bring.
Stay tuned for Day 4!

I'm embarking on a new path of discovery and I'll be sharing my lessons as I go further...
Learning all I need to master the logistics and supply chain industry. If you are into logistics I will be your best friend henceforth😂
Wish me good luck✨
Turning Trucking Data Into Dollars: Episode #53 of Kev Talks is Live!
How do you turn billions of data points into real, measurable savings for shippers, carriers, and brokers?
In this week’s episode of @KevTalksPodcast , we sit down with @ryanjoycevoice founder of GenLogs, to unpack how real-time visibility is transforming domestic trucking and port operations across the U.S.
Ryan shares how GenLogs, built from his background in U.S. intelligence, is helping companies:
· Track trucks, containers, and chassis in real time
· Optimize networks and uncover backhaul opportunities worth millions
· Use AI to make logistics smarter and more precise
· Align RFPs with real carrier behavior to drive true efficiency
🎙 In the clip below, Ryan explains how GenLogs is helping shippers and BCOs rethink their RFPs, uncover hidden savings, and turn logistics chaos into clarity.
“We’d love to sit down with a shipper and show them what their network really looks like—no data required from them. We’re talking eight figures in potential savings for early adopters using our data next year.” — Ryan Joyce, @GenLogs
If your transportation team is gearing up for its next RFP, this is a must-listen.

"No two logistics operations are the same. The complexity and urgency of each shipment demand solutions that are just as tailored."
