map&guide planner
The scheduling software for transport and logistics
The new scheduling software - map&guide planner - has been specifically developed for the transport and logistics sector and loading companies.
Map-based route planning plus realistic vehicle-deployment planning
map&guide planner combines map-based route planning with highly realistic vehicle scheduling. The software is easy to use and offers a wide range of optimisation functions to assist schedulers with their daily tasks. Consignments, routes and vehicles are visualised on a map; the entire scheduling workflow is thereby depicted on one interface.
This geographical approach to scheduling allows you to optimise distances and times realistically, effectively and efficiently whilst accounting for:
- Driving times, rest periods and loading times
- Appointments and time slots
- Vehicle restrictions and hazardous goods equipment
- Loading capacities of vehicles
Transport scheduling directly on the map
Routes can be compiled, assigned to a vehicle or handed off to a subcontractor simply by using drag and drop - without leaving the map.
Integrates easily into your existing software
map&guide planner can be easily integrated into your current freight forwarding software, transport management solution or ERP system. map&guide planner retrieves the consignment or shipment data from the relevant system, displays this information geographically and then performs scheduling. Finally the data is transferred back to the main program enhanced with comprehensive route information.
