Features
-
Transport Order Management Transport Order Management involves the organization of transports based on material characteristics, availability, schedules, and vehicles. It ensures in-time supply to lines through transport prioritization and provides automated updates of planned Transport Orders to adapt to the current situation. Additionally, it offers transparency about movements in the Transport Journal.
-
Storage & Transport Optimization Storage & Transport Optimization features a configurable Destination Finding rulebook that verifies the suitability of a storage location for specific materials by considering their properties, the characteristics of the location, and the materials already stored there. It also selects the optimal storage location based on the material and the current yard situation. Additionally, it identifies the optimal route for transports involving multiple steps and various means of transport.
-
Warehouse & Yard Management Warehouse & Yard Management provides precise mapping of warehouses, yards, and storage areas, specifically tailored to the requirements and challenges of the metals industry. It ensures complete transparency of materials and storage situations at all times, supported by 2D and 3D graphical displays. The system tracks means of transport within the yard and includes integrated PSIweb Apps for mobile devices and scanners, facilitating inventory taking and stock reconciliation.
-
Load Building & Execution Load Building & Execution involves creating loading programs for both internal and external shipping within PSImetals Logistics or by taking over from an external system. It includes assigning a shipping vehicle and automatically generating transport orders. Additionally, it ensures the balancing and status tracking of loading programs.
