Imagine a system that would allow you to organise the entire process in Transport Management. Our transportation management software BRABENDER logistic suite represents every area in logistics companies. It supports the organisation and promotes efficiency. Dispatch plans all transport jobs with this system support, and billing of your services takes place in what is mostly an automated process. Integrated telematics supply current data in the system, and all the data can be analysed at the tip of your fingers. Thus, you have virtual real-time visibility of your current revenues and cost structure. You could compare our software for the operational structure of freight forwarders and transport companies to a Swiss knife.
• FTL and LTL traffic
• Groupage
• Sea freight and air freight processing

Clearly defined, functional and interconnected: this is what the software "Brabender Logistics suite" looks like in practice:
The system supports your employees in their daily work with powerful planning and flexible order processing. Plan your resources and see the effect immediately: your resources report costs and services for tours and orders. The motto here is to dispatch transparently.
Fast order entry, electronic linkage to the system traffic and scanning in the hall are a part of this system. Dynamic routes make automatic routing for appropriate co-operation possible. An automated bordereau ensures correct distribution. You get an overview of use and recommendations for recalculations. This allows you to draw conclusions with up-to-date results.
Handling international transport by sea and air freight is depicted systematically with the BRABENDER logistic suite. Many functions such as AWB creation to BL collection, ship, port lists and compliance verification are already included.
Drivers and vehicles need to be looked after effectively. Surveillance visits, education and training, driving and working hours are managed here with technical assistance. The equipment, repairs and other documentation are also united within it. Even messages from telematics are sent directly into the system of the fleet manager.
Fully integrated into the software are also the applications of a logistics service provider. Transport processes can be triggered directly within the TMS. Customers are billed more flexibly with the integrated billing services.
If the flow of goods for customers is handled in cross-docking, you can use the integrated control centre of BRABENDER logistic suite. Control the warehousing staff and ramps in your facility, where a transhipment of up to 500 trucks is possible. Scan processes with integrated quality control meet the highest demands.
• Temperature-controlled goods
• Handling of hazardous goods
• Chamber dispatch of tank- and silo vehicles
• Multimodal transport
• Heavy goods transport
• Swap body transport
• Secure transport
• Crossover traffic
With our system, ‘set points’ can be recorded in contracts. The temperature during transport is logged, the setting of the cooling machine monitored and the operating costs managed. Cooling curves and doorways are correctly documented along with the order. If necessary, simply print the temperature proof straight from the current order or e-mail it directly to your customers.
There are several things to consider when handling jobs which include hazardous goods: whether a warning board has to be unfolded or mixed loading in one container is prohibited; whether the vehicle has the proper equipment and staff with the necessary qualifications is employed. Our system can support you here as well. Our motto is to administer hazardous goods safely.
Requirements for transport in tank and silo vehicles are growing rapidly in the food and chemical industries, among others. How many litres or what weight is/are possible in which chamber? Should cleaning be considered? Is the product allowed to be loaded into the vehicle? All required documents for documentation are generated here at the click of a mouse button.
The BRABENDER logistic suite provides integrated timetables for pan-European transport in combined traffic. Booking of departure times of ferry connections and corresponding costs can be reset directly into transport by a mouse click. If diverse processes take place in combined traffic, the software can save huge amounts of time by allowing easy allocation of invoices and mass billings of ferry and train corporations. Accompanied or unaccompanied traffic is thus immediately taken into account in the calculation of costs.
Do you deal in the transportation of various loads and need to combine new vehicle groups? Schedule your resources in the system: assign escort vehicles and set the route documentation immediately in the order. You can use it to bill the various services quickly and effectively. The programme’s project management feature will support you in these complex tasks.
An overview of where your swap bodies are present, and for how long, whether fully loaded or empty, is easily provided with the BRABENDER logistic suite. Organisation and verifications are supported with special features in the TMS Software.
If desired, our system can generate codes which can be stored in the door of the vehicles. You decide who gets access. When and where the door was opened is logged in the order. This way, the transport can be documented completely and you can guarantee safety for your clients.
Do you exchange resources such as drivers, trucks, swap bodies or trailers en route? Our product can support you even in this planning. The operations are efficiently visualised and the system calculates the costs. This is "cross-over traffic" at vacant or recurring meeting points.
Our technology is designed to help you effectively. Useful functions are perceivable during everyday use: work can be completed faster and more effectively with our real-time technology and simultaneous access of other colleagues.
The system has in-built real-time technology, with which your screen display is always up-to-date. All information is automatically updated for you by the BRABENDER logistic suite. Annoying waiting times and constant "updating" are entirely omitted this way.
Live-Dispatch: do you dispatch with colleagues in a team? As soon as data is modified, your teammates can immediately see the new data on their screen. This makes dispatching in a team a lot more fun!
Process orders together: in case you are modifying information in an order mask, another co-worker can update relevant information simultaneously in the same order. This simultaneous work order processing in the system is achieved by using sophisticated technology. Waiting for a colleague to release an order is no longer required. You can simply work together on the order.
We already provide a vast number of functions, but there are always areas in which standard functions are not good enough. In this case you can help yourself or ask the BRABENDER expert team for assistance.Include functions via script-function and thus customise the BRABENDER logistic suite to your process needs better. We always strive to be as flexible as possible!
Automate dispatch tasks:do you need to sort orders of a tour according to individual requirements and dispatch them via a warehouse? Create this function easily with a script. The dispatcher can use it to edit all tours at the click of a mouse.
Addressing special cases: Following standard process is no longer possible if the sales department has agreed to special conditions with a customer. Just let us create a script for you, so that your company can henceforth offer these conditions in a standardised manner. Even complicated conditions can be billed automatically this way.
Automatic invoice creation:Some clients want invoices according to a certain criterion. A prepared script for invoices can be created for your customers from hundreds of posts, e.g., special collective invoices can be created with just a click.
Manage quotations as you calculate:different offers have certain pricing procedures which need to be adhered to while creating them. Individual calculations can be modified and standardised in the BRABENDER logistics suite. With the scripting capability of the BRABENDER logistic suite you can implement them according to your requirement.Our motto here is: we don’t compromise!
