Container optimization
Container optimization
Designed for companies with large volume purchases looking to optimize their procurement orders and maximize efficiency in container usage. This tool allows for precise order planning, considering weight restrictions and different types of containers. With 3D graphics, you can visualize the exact occupancy of containers to avoid wasted space and ensure each container meets the established restrictions. Additionally, the plugin issues proactive alerts about unfilled containers, allowing users to make informed decisions and improve supply chain management.
The plugin enables companies to make procurement orders more effectively, reducing logistics costs and improving operational efficiency.
