IT for transport and logistics
Transport and logistics is strongly represented in our region, particularly around Oldenzaal and Hengelo. These are companies where the planning never stops and where a standstill immediately means trucks waiting.
Planning that cannot fail
Transport management software is the heart of the company. It links orders, drivers, vehicles and invoicing. If that system is unavailable for an hour, planners fall back on paper and telephone, and the rest of the day is spent catching up. We build these environments with redundancy in the places that matter, and we watch them outside office hours as well.
Connections with clients
Larger clients want an EDI connection or a portal. That places demands on availability and on security: an external party gets a way into your systems. We set those connections up separately from your office network, so that a problem on one side does not spill over to the other.
Warehouse and yard
Scanners, terminals and printers in a warehouse ask for a different network than an office. Steel racking, concrete and moisture do things to a wireless signal. We measure on site instead of hanging access points by guesswork, and we make sure the yard is covered too.
Drivers on the road
On-board computers, telephones and tablets are part of your IT even when they never enter the building. We make sure a lost telephone does not become an open door and that a driver can be helped without someone having to drive out to the vehicle.
The services that matter most in this sector
What companies in this sector ask us
Our transport software runs at the supplier. What is left for you?
Plenty. The workplaces, the network, the internet connection, e-mail, security and backup are all still yours. And when the software is unreachable, someone has to work out where the problem sits. That is often us.
Can you arrange wireless coverage across the whole yard?
Yes. We measure the site and place equipment that is built for outdoor use. A yard is not an office; consumer equipment does not survive a winter there.
We work with clients in Germany. Does that change anything?
For e-mail and telephony it does. We make sure messages arrive on both sides of the border and that employees with a German number can reach your environment safely.
Curious what we could do for you?
The first consult is free and without obligation. We map out your IT and tell you honestly what you do and do not need.
