 Adapt
Load Plans Easily with FastPlantm
to Reflect Last Minute Customer Needs
- LoadOpttm
FastPlantm technology allows fast response
to change
-- Minutes after the optimization is done, a customer calls and switches a
shipment to air freight. Not a problem, pull it out of the load plan.
Move other shipments around quickly to fill the void or send the batch back
for re-optimization
- Adapt easily to situations "on the ground"
-- Your planner knows the dock will be open next Sunday and that delivery
can be made even if it's normally closed. This means switching the
optimized delivery sequence. Fine! Two mouse clicks in FastPlantm
and it's done.
- Wait for better load mates tomorrow
-- Even with optimization, some shipments just don't have
any good load-mates in today's batch to build economical routes. But
more shipments are coming tomorrow. Break up the not-so-great loads
and release the shipments for tomorrow's plan: easy in FastPlantm.
- Resubmit light loads to be filled out with new
orders -- The trailer is light, but the TL carrier needs to be notified
for the run. Book the load, lock the shipments on it in FastPlantm,
and resubmit for optimization to look for new shipments to fill out the
load.
- Track deviations from optimal route selection
-- When your planners change the optimized loads in LoadOpttm's
planning screens, the cost impacts are tracked for later evaluation
