What is Freight2020

Freight2020 is an integrated Transport & Logistics Solution designed to assist the Operational, Accounting and Fleet Management of all transport & logistics businesses. Our totally integrated approach enables you to reduce lost revenue, missing paperwork, time consuming data entry along with many other inefficient processes you may currently be engaged in. Our view is that data is entered once into the system and that information should be immediately available to other users in other parts of the business where required.

Automating manual tasks such as freight rating in Freight2020, ensures that accuracy is maintained while operator efficiency is increased. We have designed the booking environment to collect information that may well be provided by the customer. Meanwhile, we will use this information to assist in routing, rating, allocation and load planning.

Ultimately the outcome that you as a business owner require is an operational process that flows, delivers customer efficiency and functional reporting, showing key performace indicators such as profitability analysis by vehicle, route and customer to name a few.

Freight2020 then forms a critical part of your business in being the Executive Information System that allows you to increase your activity without employing an army of people to manage your growth.

 

The Software Platform 

Freight2020 is a cross platform application which has succesfully been installed on both Windows and Unix servers supporting a windows based client.

Using a relational database to power the system ensures your can access your information with minimal effort using a graphical user interface.

Freight2020 is based around the very robust OpenEdge Relational Database from Progress Software Inc. This enables us to provide complete data integrity, for instance if your server should suffer from a power failure the system is able to return very quickly to its original state with out any data corruption. This has been described by many of our customers as "Bullet Proof".

For those of you with a interest in technology and have not come across Progress Openedge, this relational database solution can be directly compared to Oracle in terms of scalability, functionality and use across the world. We very much view the Microsoft Sequal Server Database solution as a less powerful solution. If required Freight2020 can be deployed with an Oracle or Microsoft Sequal Server database. This is not something we would recomend as apart from increaseing the cost of software it also creates an overhead in terms of support and the required hardware to run it.
