Multimodal planning: optimised combined supply plans for rail and road transport interconnection
Multimodal planning combines road transport services and rail link management with the aim of creating cost-effective, reliable and up-to-date combinations for the movement of goods. This multimodal logistics optimises the routes, reduces the associated costs and ensures better visibility and risk management of deliveries.
What exactly moves and why it works
Multimodal approach combines the best aspects of road and rail transport: road transport services offer flexibility and delivery from door to door, while the organisation of rail links enables long-distance transport to be resolved more favourably and environmentally friendly. Combined supply plans ensure that each shipment is on the optimal route, taking into account the speed, cost and reliability of reaching the final destination.
Who benefits
Services are suitable for logistics and supply chain managers, manufacturers, wholesalers, importers and freight forwarders who wish to reduce transport costs, improve delivery schedules and increase operational flexibility. This is also suitable for those who need support in organising railway connections or coordinating integrated road transport services.
Main functions and advantages
- Combined supply plans - optimised routes that reduce the cost of unused journeys and supplies.
- Railway connections - coordination of processes between train lines and terminals in order to ensure a smooth transition.
- - reliable door-to-door movement, according to customer schedules and requirements.
- Cost optimisation - combined approach reduces costs and emissions.>>>>>> >l >l> >l >l> > Integrated planning reduces supply chain risks, improves storage and transport times and creates transparent visibility for each shipment.</p>
<Difference on the market will be based on the coordination of local rail links, broad road transport services in the Community and in real time - resulting in smoother shifts, shorter waiting times at terminals and a more reliable supply group.
Close strategically to supply chain problems: combined supply plans and targeted multimodal logistics provide an opportunity to reduce costs, increase the accuracy of deliveries and strengthen competitiveness.
