Ocean
Ocean transportation moves about two-thirds the value of America’s international commerce according to the World Shipping Council. As global economies strengthen, robust double-digit growth in container trade is expected to continue throughout this decade. The surge in volumes globally puts pressure on ports, terminals and intermodal systems which impacts total transportation costs. Streamlining operations is the key to success.

Container Loading
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.
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, DOT rules and many more factors.
