Consolidation Management
Digital Robots to consolidate your movements
Logistics cost constitutes a good portion of the total cost for any company. Cost-cutting plays an important role in Logistics. Fero’s consolidation management module incorporates the consolidation of multiple less-than-truckload (LTL) movements to full truckload (FTL) movement considering various parameters and constraints by recommending the most suited fleet type for consolidation.

Consolidation constraints
Every consolidation is checked against your parameters and constraints, so shipments that can't travel together stay apart.

Key benefits
Why teams switch it on.
Substantial cost saving
Fewer, fuller trucks carry the same shipments that would otherwise each need their own movement.
Reduced CO2 emissions
Combining LTL movements into FTL trips takes vehicles off the road.
Increased operational efficiency
Planners confirm recommended consolidations instead of matching loads by hand.
Reduced human dependency
Grouping, constraint checks and fleet selection run on their own.
Also in plan
Part loads consolidate into full truckloads, trips are sequenced against the fleet you actually have, and capacity is simulated before it is committed.
