Automotive Industry
Today’s automotive industry faces greater challenges than at any time in recent history. Increased government regulations, rising costs of raw materials, ever-increasing energy prices, and extreme global competition are taking their toll. The results have been plant closures, job cuts, and a decrease in shareholder value. Manufacturers must find ways to reduce operational costs if they are to remain competitive. Performance-Improving technologies hold the key to future growth.
ORTEC can help you increase efficiency in the following areas:
Order Generation
Automated order creation based on analysis of customer delivery history and sales patterns using forecasting technology will increase average delivery volumes, eliminate customer “out of stock” situations, oversized deliveries and returned product.
Vehicle Routing & Dispatch
Route optimization software will minimize miles driven, driver hours as well as planning & dispatch time. It takes into account actual travel times and distances, customer service restrictions such as delivery time windows or required equipment (liftgate etc.) as well as vehicle capacity, required security clearance, DOT rules and many more factors.
Pallet & Load Building
Our software will optimize the process of order picking, palletizing, and loading of goods for both inbound and outbound distribution environments. It takes into account factors such as product dimensions, stackability restrictions, hazardous materials, customer loading preferences as well as axle weight constraints while striving for maximized asset utilization.
