Enter: FreightWare; a complete set of transport management modules, developed to cater for pure-play transport companies like couriers.

Road transport plays an indispensable part in everyday society. In South Africa alone, over 80% of all freight moved is via road.

In South Africa, over 80% of all freight– overnight express, line haul, break bulk, etc. – is moved via road. But the road freight and road transportation industries face ongoing challenges linked to fuel prices, labor increases, increased vehicle and maintenance costs and process inefficiencies. And it can be difficult to maintain customer loyalty in this environment.

As a road transporter, you’ll agree that you’re required to become more efficient, more profitable and more cost-aware, while increasing the quality of your customer service. Easier said than done. But Dovetail can help.

Our FreightWare Transport Management Software and related solutions, including eXpressLink, eDocs, eBilling and MobileControl, have delivered superb results by assisting transport companies to decrease operating costs, increase profitability and improve overall customer service levels.

Bulk and/or FTL refers to the process of transporting large quantities, which include pellets, silica sand, powder, chemical manufacturers, pulp and paper products, paint and solvent manufacturers, and many others.

For bulk transporters, the focus is on getting materials and product–pallets, silica sand, powder, chemicals, pulp/paper products, paint or solvents – to their destination on time and economically, but beyond the transport costs of trucking liquid and dry bulk, logistics management is a key part of the process.

It’s equally important to integrate technology and best practice, so supply chain executives have the data they need to make correct transport management decisions. Our FreightWare software and its solutions –eXpressLink, eDocs, eBilling, MobileControl, etc.–are ideal for this purpose.

The 3PL industry is a dynamic environment with varying degrees of complexity, caused by multiple clients operating in a single facility. 3PL operators have the challenge of running a profitable business with a single set of tools, facilities, manpower and material handling equipment.

The 3PL industry is a lively arena known for its varying degrees of complexity. Every 3PL facility operates differently due to client mix, KPIs, contract terms and other factors, and the level of automation varies based on customer requirements. At the same time, 3PL operators must run profitable businesses with one set of tools, facilities, manpower and material-handling equipment.

This is why 3PL business owners need non-rigid and flexible solutions that can handle varying degrees of automation within a single facility, like Dovetail’s AccellosOne 3PL Warehouse Management Solution (WMS).

Most warehouse and distribution centres face challenges on a daily basis; the need to increase operational effectiveness, the necessity for improved and timely management information, struggling with legacy or accounting software inventory systems, compliance with legislature; and the need to eliminate manual processes.
