Who Is the Client?
Volga Engenharia Indústria e Comércio LTDA. is a company with over 15 years of experience. It specializes in manufacturing medium and low-voltage electrical panels, shielded busbars, as well as industrial building automation panels. Volga has committed to providing innovative, high-quality solutions to the market, assisting various sectors such as industries, commercial enterprises, and urban infrastructure. As part of its strategic growth, including expansion into international markets, the company has also focused on improving cargo planning efficiency to strengthen its logistics and overall operational performance.
What Was the Issue?
Volga transformed its load planning and logistics processes after implementing EasyCargo because its truck load planning was originally being done manually. As a result, it was facing logistics challenges with limited cargo planning efficiency. This impacted both costs and operational control.
Key challenges:
- Load planning was being done manually; therefore, there is a greater risk of operational errors and increased logistics costs.
- The process of loading and unloading products was extremely long due to the high volume of deliveries.
- Lack of cargo space optimization.
How Did We Help?
Volga had not previously considered a similar solution, such as EasyCargo, until one of its draftsmen recommended us as a viable alternative for optimizing the process. Since implementing the tool, Volga has seen significant improvements in its operation, such as:
- Automated cargo planning: Optimization of load planning by reducing the amount of empty space and ensuring a better use of transport capacity, all done virtually before the truck is loaded in the real world.
- Optimized cargo space usage: A reduction in logistics costs as a result of vehicle capacity being maximized and avoiding the reworking of cargo space.
- Efficient loading process: Increased loading efficiency, resulting in faster and more consistent operations.
- Optimizing logistics operations: Improved cost predictability and transparency, allowing for more strategic control over logistics.
- Enhanced product delivery: More satisfied customers, thanks to punctual deliveries.
What Are the Results?
When comparing its operations before and after implementing EasyCargo, Volga observed a significant improvement in transport and cargo planning efficiency. As a result, the company could offer more competitive commercial conditions and expand into new markets.
It ensured better logistics planning and simplified any changes to the loading plan. EasyCargo brought significant benefits to its logistics operations, such as avoiding the risk of operational errors and inefficiencies, which consequently increased operating costs. EasyCargo load planning software directly impacted its efficiency and delivery performance.
The following is an example of its packed equipment. The load plan was calculated using EasyCargo:
