Routing Material Guidelines

For Carl Zeiss Industrial Metrology, LLC

As supply chains become more global and complex, it is important that purchase orders are fulfilled on time using the ZEISS approved transportation method to assure that your products arrive as expected. To make it easier for you to fulfill our orders, each purchase order includes a “Delivery Date Day” which is the date that item must arrive in our plant. Using this date less transit days to set your shipment date will assure that your products arrive on time to meet the 100% on-time delivery expectation.

Routing material guidelines for Carl Zeiss Industrial Metrology, LLC

Selecting the ZEISS-required transportation provider is now easier as designated freight methods and carriers are located here. On each purchase order, there is a reminder to check here to determine the transportation method and third party billing information. Selecting the approved transportation method and provider and referencing the PO number on all bills of lading is important to eliminate the need to charge back costs for un-approved transportation. If you have questions on the approved transportation provide, please contact the logistics team at st off @zeiss .com.
