Challenges
Complexity & cost pressures as a daily reality
Automotive logistics is a balancing act: global supply chains, just-in-time requirements, and volatile markets make every planning task a challenge. OEMs and suppliers are juggling fragmented data, short-notice changes in demand, and rising freight rates. Add to that bottlenecks in transport capacity and growing expectations for sustainability. Without intelligent, connected planning, blind spots emerge that lead to costly empty runs, excess inventory, and production stoppages. All of which directly impact your margins.

Our solutions for your transportation & network planning
MRP Inbound Optimization
Our solution combines:
- Automated FTL, LTL, and milkrun scheduling through AI-based consolidation.
- Transport-optimized delivery calls that intelligently bring forward quantities.
- Simultaneous optimization of load space and freight rates for maximum efficiency.
- TCO-focused planning that takes a holistic view of costs.
The platform takes all relevant restrictions into account:
- Stackability, paired loads, and axle loads for safe transport in compliance with regulations
- Time slots and loading dock capacity for smooth deliveries
The result is an intelligent inbound planning that combines demand, physical constraints, and costs into a single, automated process.
Tactical Network Optimization
Features at a glance:
- Automated planning of milkruns, full truckloads (FTL), less-than-truckloads (LTL) and groupage shipments through AI-based consolidation.
- Automated tactical network optimization on a monthly basis to support strategic decision-making.
- Dynamic route and freight rate optimization for maximum efficiency.
- Optimization of total cost of ownership (TCO) for sustainable cost reduction.
With this solution, you can simulate scenarios, identify opportunities for consolidation, and plan your network so that capacity, costs, and constraints are perfectly balanced.
