August 25, 2014
Solution: We implemented our cloud-based ‘twSlot’ Appointment Scheduling solution, through which carriers schedule appointment times online. The schedules incorporated the facilities’ resources and constraints and intuitively enforced these rules.
Results: ‘twSlot’ enabled the manufacturer to level inbound traffic, efficiently allocate unloading resources and reduce operational hours from 3 shifts down to 2. First year ROI exceeded $1 Million by eliminating demurrage fees, overtime pay and renegotiating favorable transportation rates. Customer is now rolling out solution across NA, EU and APAC regions.
