Groupage software
Many logistics service providers take care of their customers’ groupage of individual shipments. That requires a lot of your software: many documents are needed per truck or container and the administrative process is laborious. With our groupage software, you can optimal plan partial shipments and set up freight documents and invoices quickly and easily. The condition for profitable groupage activities!
Groupage export
When groupage exports, the individual consignments are registered by destination. These bookings are linked as a consignment to a container file. The software shall then consider the total weight and size of the consignments in the container. And you can easily print out (provisional) loading lists and container manifesto.
Groupage import
During groupage import, the individual consignment in a container are entered in the system. Per consignment the transportation can further be scheduled. The software takes care of the necessary documents.
Various consignments in the container can be entered in the module Groupage Import. For each consignment, onward transport will be arranged, including the associated documentation.
Groupage & LTL
Planning
Groupage and LTL (Less Than Truckload) freight forwarders are confronted with many pickup locations and delivery addresses per route. That makes planning groupage drives complex. Efficiency improvements are achieved by cross-docking and the right bundling of items.
With the right software, you can create optimal schedules for your drivers and be prepared for traffic jams and other delays.

"For our customers, their goods are their most valuable asset. By storing, monitoring and transporting these goods we take a great responsibility. In order to be able to do this, a standard, future-proof WMS is required. With Boltrics' WMS, we are assured of an up-to-date system and always have access to the latest innovations. "
"In the short term, custom made software can provide a good solution. However, with the growth we experience as Dynamic Logistics, a powerful WMS tool was needed with little to no customization. Therefore, we opted for Boltrics' WMS solution."
"We opted for Boltrics because of their strong focus on logistics service providers, the standard yet highly flexible branch solution, and the Microsoft Dynamics platform as its core."
"Gathering data in one location is becoming increasingly important. Real-time insight into stocks is essential. With Boltrics' WMS, we benefit from the benefits of an industry standard, but at the same time, it offers the flexibility to implement our business-specific processes. "
"With our previous solution, we experienced some technical restrictions and it took a lot of effort and time to gain insight into our data. With Boltrics software, we can provide our customers the needed information with just one mouse click - via an EDI interface. In addition, we can register warehouse activities directly in the WMS. Simplify our job and reducing risks."
Nekovri Dynamics had our preference for all European sites. The solution offers all the necessary integrated functionality to improve operational efficiency and be better positioned for organic and acquisitive growth. In addition, we will be able to registrate the temperature, batch numbers, production- and expiration date. It will simplify our work processes and save us time.”

“3PL Dynamics is an important tool within the logistics process for us, but for our customers too. Thanks to this system all our stock levels are up-to-date and immediately surveyable to our customers via the web portal. Yet more importantly: with this investment in 3PL Dynamics our business processes have accordingly optimised to such a degree that error probability within our organisation has reduced to a minimum.”

Similarly, in the future we will be in a position to flexibly match customer requirements. Moreover, we also incorporate our financial administration in Nekovri Dynamics, meaning we have everything in a single standard package. ”
“The WMS is supplemented with a standard RF scanning module. That eases administration and the workload of the warehouse team, especially when it comes to cross-docking activities. We now achieve more with the exact same staff.”
"With Nekovri Dynamics we automate our in-house processes and have a direct link between the weighing units and the WMS."
"EDI, RF scanning in the warehouse and an automated information system make it possible to get through more work yet with fewer transactions. With Nekovri Dynamics this efficiency drive is attained."
“We opted for Nekovri Dynamics as it links up perfectly with our requirements pertaining to message handling with our customers and conventional Microsoft programmes. In addition, the multi-site options suit us very well and the software is much more user-friendly.”
“As 3PL Dynamics is continuously reviewed we’ll never reach that point where the software is obsolete and that, for example, after 10 years only a full reimplementation will suffice. As such we’re transitioning from registration to control and management.”
Works
universally
On premise
With the on premise variant the software is physically installed on your own server, be it at your offices, or externally with a data centre. The hardware is then managed by your own ITC department or by an external party. The software can subsequently be accessed within the organisation’s local area network (LAN).
In the cloud
If you would prefer your software ‘in the cloud’, then the software can be installed on a server somewhere in the ether that you link up with online, irrespective of your location. No additional worries about data & performance as ITC management is included in the monthly fee. Your ITC department manages the system purely at a functional level.
Hybrid
Hybrid is a combination of cloud and on-site systems. For example: the logistics software is on-site and other software such as CRM online, Office365 and Power BI is in the cloud. Everything is fully integrated, meaning the users are unaware which environment they are working in. Moreover, the same log-in details are used for all systems.
