LoadPlan

Smarter Freight Planning, Every Dispatch, Every Day

LoadPlan converts Sales Orders and Purchase Orders into optimized freight profiles instantly putting the right vehicle on the right route at the right cost, every time.

Business Outcome
Typical 8–12% reduction in freight cost per dispatch | Lower transportation costs and higher vehicle utilization
Overview

What is LoadPlan?

The Operational Challenge

Traditional freight planning relies on manual spreadsheet calculations, static volume projections, and intuition at the loading dock. Logistics teams struggle with daily sales order (SO) and purchase order (PO) fluctuations, resulting in sub-optimal vehicle selection, partial loads, unnecessary LTL splits, and runaway freight spend.

The LoadPlan Solution

LoadPlan addresses the express need of logisticians for instant, on-demand freight profiling. By ingesting current-day SO and PO batches directly from ERP systems, LoadPlan applies intelligent optimization algorithms to consolidate orders into compliant full-truckloads (FTL), multi-stop milk runs, and multi-mode lane plans (Road / Rail / Air).

The Measurable Outcome

The result is 100% load compliance with pre-negotiated cost benchmarks and SLA targets. On-demand freight planning is made accessible directly to field-level dispatchers, enabling faster decision-making, maximum vehicle cubic utilization, and an immediate 8–12% reduction in freight cost per dispatch.

WORKFLOW

How LoadPlan Works in 3 Simple Steps

From raw ERP order batches to dispatch-ready freight profiles in minutes.

Step 01

Upload or Sync SO/PO Batch

Ingest daily Sales Orders and Purchase Orders automatically from your ERP system (SAP, Oracle, Dynamics) via direct API sync or batch file upload.

Step 02

Apply Algorithms & Profile Cargo

LoadPlan applies optimization algorithms to calculate load consolidation, route selection, vehicle sizing, and cost benchmark compliance.

Step 03

Feed Directly into FreightPro

Optimized freight profiles flow seamlessly into FreightPro for instant carrier allocation, RFQ auctioning, and yard dispatch execution.

Ecosystem Integration

LoadPlan integrates natively with SAP, Oracle, and Microsoft Dynamics via API, and feeds directly into FreightPro for seamless dispatch execution.

FEATURES

Cargo & Route Optimization

Core features designed for precision cargo planning and vehicle routing.

Load Consolidation

Consolidate FTL and LTL shipments automatically based on volume, weight, stackability, and delivery schedules.

Dynamic Route Optimization

Generate multi-stop milk-runs, drop shipments, and multi-pickup routing seamlessly to minimize total transit miles.

Milk-Run Planning

Group regional vendor orders into efficient circular delivery loops, eliminating empty return miles and lowering costs.

Right-Fit Vehicle Selection

Match cargo profiles with the exact vehicle type, axle capacity, and cubic volume required for maximum payload efficiency.

Capacity Planning

Forecast daily truckload requirements against transporter contract commitments to prevent capacity shortages.

Multi-Mode Lane Planning (Road / Rail / Air)

Analyze cost vs. lead time to route shipments across intermodal road, rail, and air freight networks for optimal balance.
