Transport Scheduling and Management
TransportOpsTM is aimed at three market applications: transporting construction equipment (e.g., between a rental location and a building site), moving containers (e.g., to/from multi-modal shipping points), and relocating automobiles for auction (e.g., from a towing company storage lot to a regional auction facility). The process allows dispatchers to plan/schedule their loads for the next day by truck and driver, and dashboards for the Transport Manager provide information for the early identification of potential issues.
