Transport Management Technology
Greater visibility and control across your road freight operations
Real-time transport information gives your teams the insight they need to manage day-to-day operations, identify exceptions and make informed decisions. With visibility across shipments, suppliers, carriers and delivery points, you can monitor performance and identify opportunities to improve transport efficiency.
Transport management for complex FTL and LTL operations
We designed our proprietary Transport Management System (TMS), Visual Freightrak (VFT), to manage high-volume and complex logistics movements.
The system provides an integrated view of your transport operations, helping you manage orders, plan collections and deliveries, track shipments and monitor performance.
Designed to support high-volume and complex transport movements, our technology helps South African businesses manage FTL and LTL road freight with greater visibility, structured planning and performance reporting.
