At the Berlin Startup Tracks, everything revolves around the fuel consumption of trucks. For its predictive fuel analyses, it uses a large amount of data from the truck and its driving environment to obtain as comprehensive an overview as possible of consumption values and the relevant influencing factors. On this basis, recommendations can be made for action regarding pricing, fleet composition and efficiency-enhancing investments. With the help of artificial intelligence, Tracks tries to save as much fuel as possible. Both the wallet of the haulage company and the environment are happy about this.
A seafaring trip is supposed to be jolly, but even there unfortunately accidents happen occasionally. At the latest with the complaint treatment the fun stops; often the process drags itself over months. The startup OPTIMIZ promises a remedy. With their platform CroP (Cargo Recovery Platform), the experienced entrepreneurs Bop Sandrino-Arndt and Kingsly Kongnyuh Kwalar have developed a solution controlled by artificial intelligence. Thanks to CroP, the collection costs for shipping companies, freight forwarders, port companies, airlines and cargo insurers can be reduced by up to two thirds and at the same time the time required to assert claims can be reduced to just a few clicks. The company is based in London, Marseille and Cologne.
Order is half the life, a German proverb says, and also saves a lot of money – at least in a well organized warehouse. The key to success is the right Warehouse Management System (WMS). Pulpo WMS from Düsseldorf offers an app for warehouse workers and a web application for warehouse management. Thanks to its clearly defined AP, Pulpo WMS is ideal for e-commerce requirements. The app is compatible with several cost-effective hardware options and warehouse workers learn to perform tasks error-free in a single day. The app guides warehouse staff to the right position and the right product in every process, such as an optimal picking route.
Sirum from Hamburg offers an ERP system for the transport industry. ERP stands for Enterprise Resource Planning and describes the task of planning and using all resources in a company in the best possible way. The software enables order entry, order management, accounting, master data management, archiving, documentation and control of the freight process. The system also covers internal topics such as human resources or the vehicle fleet. The processes run via a cloud, as a software-as-a-service solution that works on the PC, tablet and mobile phone. If you wish, you can also run the program from your own data center.
