Load Analyzer
Load Analyzer: Success Is in the Balance
Your trucks don't do much good if they're not used and additional loads may simply mean frustrated customers if you don't have open trucks. Success lies in keeping loads and capacity in balance.
Manhattan Associates' Load Analyzer allows you to respond to load requests with full knowledge of your current and future capacity and to solicit freight where you have idle or less than load trucks. In addition, Load Analyzer takes information about the new or potential loads and develops the optimal repositioning plan. Take planning to the next step with Load Analyzer's demand forecasting, optimisation and commitment management tools, which work together to help you maintain balance—and increase profit—throughout your network.
Carriers find that Load Analyzer helps them:
- Increase profits
- Enhance service
- Improve network balance
- Optimally match demand with supply
- Intelligently respond to load requests
- Proactively solicit loads
- Optimally position fleet in anticipation of demand
Optimise Across Your Network
Balancing loads is a critical part of a carrier's success, but it isn't everything. You also need to get drivers to their destinations efficiently, minimize costs and maintain profits, which is why Manhattan Carrier also includes these modules:
- Driver&Load®: Match specific drivers to the best possible load combinations across your global network. Update driver-to-load combinations in real time.
- Drop&Swap®: Improve efficiency by evaluating all potential drivers and load combinations to determine optimal swaps. Receive alerts and monitor changing estimated arrival times to identify emerging problems and avert service failures.
- Fuel&Route®: Determine optimal routing and fuel recommendations while balancing driver requests and preferences. Reduce out-of-route miles and costs for fuel, taxes and tolls.
- Profit Analyzer: Assess the long-term value of each shipper, each lane and each shipment in your freight network. Capture and optimise the key factors affecting profitability, including freight revenues, network balance, driver utilization, fixed equipment costs, overhead allocation, deadhead and dwell time.
