The collaboration between lbase and the barth logistics group has a long tradition: the German family business has relied on lbase transport and warehouse management systems for over 20 years. Over time, a trusting partnership has developed to further develop the products and services. With the help of the addHelix web service platform, an innovative tool for route optimisation has now been implemented for the barth Logistikgruppe.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

What challenge did the barth logistics group face?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

The medium-sized transport and logistics company has been operating successfully in Germany and Europe for 75 years. With lbase, the barth Logistikgruppe has succeeded in digitalising key processes. But the challenges remained high: in recent years, the concentration on the market has intensified. In addition to quality and fast, flexible service, productivity and efficiency have become even more important. Added to this was the shortage of skilled labour.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

This is where the project came in: The heart of logistics - scheduling - was still very time-consuming and labour-intensive. The desire was therefore to automate route optimisation. \"It was important to us not to simply apply an algorithm to everything, but also to take special features into account. Because we need the lorry with the right driver in the right place, in the right area and with the right customer,\" explains Uwe Schempp, Managing Director of the barth logistics group.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\"With Tour Optimisation from addHelix, we can consolidate tours, make even better use of capacities and avoid empty kilometres. As a result, tour optimisation also leads to a considerable reduction in CO2<\/sub> emissions.\"<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Why did you choose the Tour Optimisation web service from addHelix?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

To meet these requirements, the barth Logistikgruppe opted for the Tour Optimisation web service from addHelix. It was adapted to the specific requirements in a multi-stage, iterative process and integrated into the lbase TMS. \"In the course of the development partnership for the tour optimiser, we were in close contact with the customer on an ongoing basis and exchanged expertise. It was important for us to understand the company's processes,\" explains Andreas Schellmann, CEO of lbase.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

It soon became apparent that optimising the sequence was not enough. In a second step, a free route optimisation was therefore carried out under restrictions. In fact, there were various special cases to consider: for example, customers who order certain drivers for their transports. Or drivers who want to continue driving in certain areas that they have known like the back of their hand for years. By customising the addHelix web service, it was possible to reliably integrate such requirements.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
