With automatic loading-ramp placement for incoming motorless vehicles (trucks and trailers), internal daily loading traffic was reduced. This led to reductions of about 1 to 2 employees from the in-plant traffic team. The delivered data make it possible to conduct simulations and statistical analyses on the basis of facts from actual, running transport processes. This has been implemented by Migros in the areas of time management (routes, drivers) and cold chain monitoring. This optimization has led to long-term reductions in driver hours. Warning messages and statistical analyses of the entire temperature cycle can help detect systematic failures and correct them through appropriate measures. Quality assurance is benefited by guaranteeing gapless temperature monitoring on every route. Migros can provide its suppliers and affiliates with exact temperature histories for transported goods.
All factors considered, TruckTrack provides an ROI in less than 2 years. |
