ORTEC Load Planning Software
Save your Company Between 5 and 15 Percent on its Freight Costs
Keeping transportation costs down is never easy. When fuel prices skyrocket like they’ve done recently, it becomes a whole new ballgame. We get it. And we can help.
ORTEC’s load planning software changes the load planning process by taking it out of the execution phase and making it an upstream supply chain planning function. Planning and optimizing truck loads and truck capacity management takes place at order entry, shipment creation and delivery creation, which is likely much earlier in your Order to Cash cycle then you typically handle load planning. By changing the timing of this process, you can react and make changes much earlier – either in the planning stage or at the customer service level – where decisions about load planning and truck utilization can have the greatest impact.
The result: maximized asset utilization. To a degree that will enable you to decrease the total number of trucks you need to deliver even more product. So, at a time when fuel prices are skyrocketing, you could actually save on your freight expenses.
Let’s talk about your business today. We can determine what makes the most sense for your organization – multi-compartment load building, double-decker loading, axle weight positioning – the opportunities for transportation cost savings are there. Let us help you uncover them.
