Freight is often received in bulk and needs to be broken down into individual shipments for onwards
transportation.
Audax's FCS uses a combination of bar-coded labels, hand held scanners and Electronic Data Interchange
to track the freight at each stage of its journey - on collection from the Shipper, arrival at each
Hub, handover to the Carrier, and final delivery to the Consignee. Paperwork is minimised with waybills
automatically produced and their shipment costs calculated. Consignees can be pre-advised of the
status of their shipments and appointments arranged to deliver the freight based on specific consignee
information.
Typical application
Bulk arrival in the import gateway of high value goods like pharmaceutical
products or computer chips, where freight may have been consolidated in the export gateway to save
money. It now needs to be broken down for different destinations. FCS ensures all this happens smoothly
- while helping to save costs in the first place - in the consolidate phase - and then in cross dock
processes.
