Fewer empty runs

Automatic freight search reduces unnecessary journeys and saves costs.

Use your data to optimise routes and costs, for example.

In logistics, every metre and every second counts. Business Analytics enables you to optimise processes, reducing empty runs, simplifying personnel planning and optimising pricing. Thanks to artificial intelligence (AI) and the linking of internal and external data, rationalisation potential can be leveraged – and even entirely new business areas identified.

Avoid empty runs

Reduce transport times, reduce complexity

Challenge:
A freight forwarder has around 25,000 km of empty runs every day, and dispatchers have to use several tools simultaneously – empty runs incur costs that drive up freight prices.

The solution:
Business Analytics consolidates data from various tools, checks for possible freight for the return journey and calculates optimal routes. Factors such as roadworks, traffic jams and driving times are taken into account. Automatic queries of freight exchanges reduce the number of empty runs.

Benefits:
Reduced operating costs by avoiding empty runs. Every kilometre driven empty costs around €1.10. CO2 emissions and the workload of dispatchers are also reduced. Digital support is available for everything from route planning to pricing.

Route optimisation

Reducing complexity and empty runs

Challenge:
A logistics company with an estimated 8,000 vehicles delivers over 500,000 parcels every day. Tight delivery deadlines must be met without fail.

The solution:
Business Analytics optimises the planning of thousands of different routes every day. Factors such as weather, current traffic conditions, parcel and customer data are taken into account. Business Analytics ensures faster tracking of shipments.

Benefits:
Increased adherence to delivery schedules within specified time windows, reduced transport times and faster parcel tracking. It also reduces the workload for staff, as data consolidation reduces the number of programmes used in parallel.
