Cargo is the central database solution for industry, commerce and the freight forwarding industry. Cargo lets you optimise and automate your entire logistics process workflows – from order capture, via scheduling and round optimisation to freight invoicing and statistics. Dynamically and within seconds, all relevant information is provided to you in a transparent way.
Whether it be multiple or single rounds, full or part loads: with Cargo you can calculate the fastest, and, if requested, the most cost-effective rounds. All relevant variables are taken into consideration such as the time frame, available vehicles or fixed appointments for the daily delivery. With Cargo you can minimise empty runs and reliably avoid inefficient tours.
By connecting a GPS positioning system you can monitor the current routes. You will be automatically alerted if a tour cannot be completed according to schedule or if appointments might be endangered.
Cargo facilitates the centralised and transparent administration of your fleet. At any time you can access all information on trucks, trailers and semi-trailers as well as individual conditions for rented vehicles and updates on repairs, tire change and fueling data.
Cargo displays all processes in a database – from the capture of a transportation order to a freight credit. Order information and important statistics can be accessed at any time. At the time of scheduling, costs and freight conditions are already available. After completion and confirmation of the rounds, the entire freight billing, including tolls, is completed automatically.
Apart from standard rates, Cargo also allows you to display and automatically invoice individually defined conditions and freight agreements: you can define company rates based on freely definable weight or unit categories, distance categories or postal code areas. These freely definable additional expenses can be easily billed via Cargo.
When optimising your rounds and orders with Cargo, you achieve a verifiable cost reduction of up to 15%. You avoid detours, reduce driving times and ensure the optimal use of your vehicles. Your customers can enjoy reliable appointments and delivery specifications. Your employees will need to deal with fewer routine tasks and gain time for a more individual customer service.
Cargo works with maps from global market leaders Tele Atlas and NavTech, with street number-accurate geo-coding. The maps provide an exact calculation of distances and driving times.
Cargo can be used as an individual work place solution, e.g. for tour planning in association with a resource planning system. It can also be used as a scalable and server-based company solution for forwarding, trade and industry logistics. In such cases, the Cargo application server facilitates smooth communication and distributed scheduling at several work places or locations. The Oracle database system guarantees high performance and data security even with large quantities of data.
