Supply Chain Optimization

Your business goals & KPIs are key

An optimised chain is only optimised when it meets your KPIs and adds additional value. Therefore, we analyse numerous alternative scenarios using the 244 different supply chain parameters, such as capacity, rates, and SLAs (service level agreements). 

We test all optimisations on your KPIs, such as lead time, total freight spent, total driven kilometres, fill rate of used equipment, number of empty driven kilometres, and CO2 emissions.

We will implement your preferred scenario in daily operations, monitor the outcome in the first couple of weeks and ensure successful delivery.

Save time, money and the planet

As you are busy with day-to-day operations, analysing and planning for optimisations can be challenging. 

So, let us dive into the details, gain insight into your supply chain, plan changes and reduce inefficiencies to ensure your competitive advantage. In a test environment of our TMS, we replicate the current transport movements within your supply chain. 

By following this method, you only need to approve our value-adding proposals.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What are common ways to optimize your supply chain?

By answering the following questions, we realize significant improvements:

• What if we change the used equipment?
  
  
• What if we deliver our LTL orders three times a week instead of five times weekly?
  
  
• What if we combine LTL orders of multiple addresses located within a particular area? What would be the ideal range for cluster orders?
  
  
• What if we combine FTL movements of different locations and create roundtrips?
  
  
• What if we use a different modality?

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How does logistics engineering improve your supply chain?

As a shipper, you provide a large set of historical transport data.

Our experts analyze it using state-of-the-art tools like SmartWay Analytics and their broad experience and transport know-how.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Can cost-efficient transport be sustainable?

It's common to think these two are opposites of each other. However, we proved time over time that we achieved these two goals with the same improvement. 

A crucial asset to derive these kinds of solutions is our transport DNA. With smart yet simple solutions, it's often possible to reduce CO2 emissions and costs at once by increasing the load fill and reducing empty mileage.
