HUB360: Enabling Manufacturers Companies to Achieve Their Sustainability Goals
The freight industry truly is on the cusp of transformation. Advancements in efficiency powered by AI digitization are altering the landscape while also resetting the bar with regard to what's possible in terms of operational performance and carbon neutrality.
With the provision of AI-based matching models, delivery data and route planning, the most cost-effective and resource-efficient routes can be identified more easily. Also, companies are able to greatly reduce the occasions when their trucks are traveling either empty or with just a partial load.
Reducing CO2 Emissions
Both manufacturers and delivery businesses require the ability to manage all important elements of their operation. Thankfully, smart business tools now exist that can help companies significantly cut costs and reduce their carbon emissions.
The fact is that the logistics industry across Europe is not as efficient as it should be, with a staggering 20% of trucks traveling empty. If this could be reduced by 10-15%, not only would this result in a significant reduction in delivery costs, but carbon emissions could be mitigated by up to 1-2 megatons each year.
So, How Does HUB360 Help?
HUB360 is an innovative software platform that optimises operations for delivery companies. Planning, routing, fulfilment and logistics can all be streamlined by companies that have their own delivery fleet or use 3rd party/contract hauliers to deliver goods on their behalf.
Traditional Transport Management Systems (TMS) were built specifically for and by haulage/delivery companies to manage and optimise their delivery operations. As such, they don't properly cater for manufacturing companies with different models and requirements.
Our platform, on the other hand, is built specifically to meet the needs of manufacturing companies both in terms of optimisation and digital transformation from legacy paper-based order fulfilment and delivery process.
HUB360 empowers delivery companies in a number of ways:
Load Fills - When each load is displayed showing the fill rate of a truck (Weight & Volume) it's easy to ensure no truck leaves with space to spare.
Mixed Loads - When all sales orders across multiple sites are viewable on one central platform, loads can be easily planned across all sites into one trailer.
Smart Routing - Automated smart routing where the optimal route is provided and the cost of selecting an alternative route plan is provided.
Data for Decision Makers
According to a survey of more than 1,000 senior executives conducted by PwC, highly data-driven organizations are three times more likely to report significant improvements in decision-making than those relying less on data.
The HUB360 platform logs data on all activities in real time, allowing data-based decisions to be made, providing businesses with the capability to generate real-time insights and predictions to optimize their performance.
Real-world Proof
This allows for the testing of different strategies and informed decision-making that results in sustainable growth. This data-driven approach allows decisions to be made on facts rather than hunches, meaning that a course of action can be evaluated before committing to it.
Rather than being a theoretical claim, we have hard evidence to back it up. Using HUB360, the Leading Smart Logistics Platform, Mannok (formally the Quinn Group) has
reported a reduction in their delivery-associated carbon emissions of almost 50%.
