Process Reference Models - Industry Best Practices
What is Inbound to Outbound (I2O)?
The Inbound-to-Outbound (I2O) domain describes the processes necessary to handle incoming deliveries from suppliers, vendor and customer returns, as well as final delivery of products to customers, subcontractors and other warehouses. It also encompasses processes for warehousing, staging of materials and receiving semi-finished and finished products from production.
We have structured the Inbound-to-Outbound (I2O) scenarios in different clusters:
inbound logistics,
staging for production,
inbound logistics from production,
outbound logistics,
transportation management,
transportation sourcing,
transportation costing, and
internal warehouse operations.
