Transport Logistic 2025: Digital Scheduling on the Next Level
With several advancements around the transport control system Opheo and the transport management system LP2, Solvares Logistics is traveling to the Transport Logistic fair in Munich. The focus of the trade fair appearance is the improvement of digital dispatch in road freight transport – through more precise arrival times, integrated driver communication, and automated freight cost control.
```As a central highlight, the provider announces the new add-on module “Load Time Forecast” for Opheo. According to the statement, the solution extends the previous ETA calculation (Estimated Time of Arrival) with a precise forecast of loading and unloading times. The system utilizes historical data and considers factors such as location characteristics, driver experience, and load quantity. This information automatically flows into the tour planning and helps dispatchers plan time windows more accurately and avoid idle times.
“With the new module, we calculate the ETA based on all available real-time and experience values – this increases reliability and reduces unnecessary buffers,” states the company's press release.
Driver communication integrated directly into the system via tablet
The mobile solution Opheo Mobile, which allows drivers to actively participate in digital processes, is also in focus. Routes can be adjusted directly on the tablet as needed, for example in case of last-minute route changes due to construction or traffic jams. Particularly in the area of tank and silo transportation, the system enables the adoption of delivery data directly from customers' measuring systems – simplifying the process for both drivers and dispatchers. To enhance display in the driver's cab, the user interface has been supplemented with new landscape views.
Live demonstrations at the booth: digital dispatching in real-time
Visitors to the trade fair can experience the functioning of the transport control center through live demos at the booth. Opheo digitally maps the entire dispatching process – from route planning to the management of ongoing transport operations to communication with the driver. The solution not only processes traffic information and telematics data but also legal driving times and now, new: loading times. The goal is proactive and dynamic planning that remains up-to-date on every route.
LP2: Automate Freight Cost Control and Uncover Errors
In addition to the transport control center, Solvares Logistics presents the transport management system LP2, which is geared towards complex supply chains and multimodal transports. The focus here is primarily on the topic of freight costs. LP2 offers functions for automated billing, intelligent invoice matching, and freight cost analysis.
“Every tenth invoice is faulty. With LP2, these costs can be systematically identified and reduced,” says Christian Schneider, Head of LP2 at Solvares Logistics.
Another trade fair offering is the complete freight audit as an external service. Together with the partner company Städtler, Solvares reviews all freight invoices factually and according to tariff. According to the company, every eighth to tenth invoice is faulty, and every twentieth shipment was not transported at all, leading to unnecessary costs. The external audit aims to systematically uncover such errors and realize savings potential of up to eight percent.
