Smart Connected Warehousing

Yojee will begin a commercial beta model and initial commercial rollout in early calendar 2022 following testbed development inside ‘Yojee Labs’. A Proof of Concept (POC) program with an existing global enterprise client has been underway. Following positive results, Yojee will now take the product to a next phase and begin commercialisation, with a simple initial pricing model.

The pricing model is based on a number of variable factors typically driving warehouse complexity and operating cost, including: floor space (measured in square metres), personnel, number of working assets (e.g. forklifts) and zones. See Appendix 1C showing three tiers of SaaS monthly pricing, to be tested in market shortly. In studying the market, Yojee has identified that the vast majority of warehousing globally operates with very little technology and lacks funding to drive cost efficiency and automation.

Yojee expects to be able to drive down operating and capital costs by providing customers with valuable insights its product will bring to warehousing operators. Yojee ultimately sees enormous benefit in tracking goods earlier in land based logistics chains, integrating with the en route operations currently performed by its Platform, beginning with tracking goods inside warehousing rather than on their exit at loading facilities.

Yojee Managing Director, Ed Clarke said , “The number of hubs implemented with Yojee’s Platform technology has been growing over the past 12 months, from 3 in December 2020 to 11 today, many of which will continue to grow and we expect these to collectively accelerate in revenue contribution as they mature.

We continue to make strong progress towards our embedded logistics hub growth pathway, rollout with existing global enterprise clients and remain confident of strong continued year on year revenue growth in FY2022 despite a heavily Covid significantly impacted September quarter. We remain in advanced stages of further expansion discussions.”

Appendix 1A: Client agreements (previously announced)

Yojee has to date signed Enterprise level agreements with 4 global Enterprise Clients under Master Services Agreements (MSAs or equivalent). These set the framework of standard terms and conditions for undertaking future rollout (expansion deployments) of Yojee’s Platform into Logistics Hubs within clients’ operations in a single country, across countries, or multiple Hubs within a country.

Yojee is a cloud-based software as a service (SaaS) logistics Platform that facilitates the flow of freight movements into a single ecosystem, making the complex process of managing land transport simple and accessible to all players whilst seeking to reduce carbon emissions for a greener planet.

  2. Route and schedule optimisation. Tracking data allows 2PL and 3PL operators to generate cost savings through Yojee’s powerful optimisation capability across vehicle selection, utilisation and routing.

Yojee’s solution is flexible and integrates seamlessly through API’s into existing logistics provider systems to access and share key data across part or all of the goods journey. The more segments that use Yojee, the more powerful it becomes. Yojee’s business is focused on Asia and is expanding rapidly. Yojee’s Platform has evolved through recent technological developments in cloud-based computing and information processing capability. Future steps now under development will see Yojee further advance logistics its connectivity and route optimisation through distributed ledger blockchain technology.
