Increased efficiency in operational transportation management

Inefficiency of ERP systems

In the automotive industry, material requirements planning (MRP) in an ERP system such as SAP is usually used to calculate which materials need to be purchased for production and delivered by freight forwarders by truck or shipping container. Looking at the configuration of new cars in particular, a high number of variants are required with regard to the production demand list. On the one hand, the conventional approach leads to reasonable planning, but on the other hand it leaves a lot of potential for optimization. Our optimization software developed by us increases the efficiency of operational transport planning by converting conventional material requirements planning into transport-optimized delivery schedules. This not only saves unnecessary costs, but also harmful CO2 emissions.

Increased efficiency through our software

Sustainability, CO2 balances, overworked dispatchers and high transportation costs are not only reasons to keep avoidable trucks off the roads, but also to use our software. Our software tool optimizes the material requirements plan with up to 30% savings on truck transports by converting it into transport-optimized delivery schedules. The result is less demand on trucks and fully utilized loading areas. The SaaS solution also offers other features such as 3D truck plans, practical PDF pick-up slips and empties management.

How does it work?

Our aim is to increase the efficiency of operational and tactical transport planning. Using specially developed mathematical algorithms, future demands can be brought forward and the loading areas of the transporters can be optimally utilized.

Importing data

In a first step, the data of the prevailing transport planning of the respective company is imported into our software.

Mathematical algorithms

The specially developed algorithms are then used to generate new, more efficient transport planning results. Naturally, the prevailing restrictions and customer requirements are taken into account.

Software as a service

In the final step, future transport plans are planned independently by the dispatchers. The tool makes it possible for company employees to carry out the necessary planning in good time.

Trial planning with innovative software

At S2data, we not only attach great importance to the individual needs of our customers, but also to serious customer service. With our optimization software, we are able to offer flexible solutions for operational transportation planning in the shortest possible time. Convince yourself and test our solution with us in an uncomplicated way.
