In today’s digital era, efficiency in logistics and transport organization is crucial. For construction companies, the coordinated movement of machines and equipment is central to the successful completion of projects. This is where the new “Disposition” module in SAM (Smart Asset Manager) from syniotec comes into play. This new module brings optimized transport management and comprehensive, digital scheduling to the SAM software solution.
Overview and management of transports
“Scheduling” is an additional module that integrates seamlessly into the SAM software for construction companies. Essentially, the aim is to create a clear overview and administration for all stakeholders involved in transportation. In this specially created area, both long-term and day-to-day planning can be carried out in order to be able to react flexibly to a wide variety of inquiries and plans. At the same time, the central information can be found by all persons involved at any time, thus creating a central basis. Dispatchers will find all relevant information for the transport organization here. From a project-independent overview of transports to be organized to status tracking, the module offers a comprehensive solution for efficient transport planning.
Automation and flexibility
The main components of the module include an overview of transport bookings to be organized and a calendar view of all transports. Color-coded markings make it easier to identify the current status, while additional information is available at all times. Transport organization can be organized according to individual usage patterns, whether by direct booking or forward planning.
Users have the option of planning all equipment & machines on a construction site for a project implementation. This enables collective transportation planning. Individual transports can be combined and assigned to an executing actor as a transport order. Transport requests are planned with just a few clicks using drag-and-drop and orders are placed accordingly.
Efficient logistics & improved communication with drivers and freight forwarders
Both internal drivers and external hauliers can be commissioned and notified in the scheduling tool for construction companies. This further development creates an improved basis for communication and enables precise and transparent transport coordination.
Drivers receive notifications about transport requests and can process them directly in the app. The ability to start and end a transport creates transparency and updated planning information for dispatchers.
Automated transport start using geofences
Another feature of “Disposition” is the ability to automatically start transportation using geofences. All information such as the planned time period, driver, freight and route can be viewed in a clear transport profile. By setting the geofence, the transport is started automatically when leaving the corresponding area. Manual management is of course still possible at any time.
Independent conveyor creation
Another feature is the option for users with the appropriate authorization to create both internal drivers and external transporters with their own profile. Data such as authorizations, contact information, framework agreements with forwarding agents, a history of past transports and other data can be clearly viewed in the profile.
This profile makes it possible to manage transporters effectively.
The future of transport organization
The “Disposition” module in SAM from syniotec brings a revolution in transport organization for construction companies. With automated communication, individual planning options and a comprehensive overview, this module enables efficient and flexible logistics on construction sites. Its seamless integration into the SAM platform makes it an indispensable solution for companies that rely on precise scheduling.
