Planning is intuitive and accurate with a Mandata TMS:

Quick and easy job assignment

Mandata TMS use drag and drop functionality to build loads.

Use a choice of Traffic Pads (job planning screens) for load based planning or resource based planning. Build and plan loads by vehicle, driver or sub-contractor and plan with accuracy using a wealth of features such as carry-over functionality. This allows planners to set a night out and have visibility of destination the following day.

Load-fill as you plan.

Vehicle capacity options can be set up in the system by metrics such as size or weight. These will then automatically calculate when jobs get assigned to a vehicle and show how much space is left in a vehicle, as well as when it’s over capacity.

Spot the correct sequence for drivers to complete jobs.

Available jobs can be displayed on a map, allowing planners to see all their jobs at once, and quickly spot which jobs are close to each other, or near to a collection point that the driver will be passing. Job order can be changed to create the most efficient route, and empty miles will be re-calculated.
