Transite’s optimization technology enables a shipper to logically aggregate, schedule and route shipments to lower the cost of freight and dovetails into any transportation management process.

Powerful benefits include:

• Allowing cost-effective merging of shipments across multiple plants and distribution centers, regardless of where located, for maximum efficiency.
• Planning for the complex inbound supply chain from multiple vendors, inbound to different plants and distribution centers.
• Maximizing vehicle capacities by recognizing mixes of product that “weight out”, “cube out” and/or is limited by pallet capacity.
• Working with mixed temperature loads with both dry and chilled product (optional mixing where product characteristics permit).
• Scheduling private fleet operations or common carrier TL service plus LTL and multi-stop loads.
• Integrating pool distribution for outbound loads — optimal use of drops at regional distribution carrier depots in lieu of LTL or direct deliveries, including a mix of pool and direct drops on one load.
• Consolidating inbound — plans TL picks at regional consolidation facilities in lieu of LTL or direct pickups, including a mix of consolidation and direct pickup on one load.
• Recognizing DOT Hours of Service rules, customer dock schedule restrictions, load and unload times, and impacts of driver delays on carrier load acceptance.
