Network Planning
Support strategic and operational planning of vehicle distribution networks.

Automotive logistics service providers coordinate highly interconnected operations across transportation, vehicle handling, storage, processing, and distribution networks.
Vehicles need to move reliably between manufacturers, compounds, terminals, processing facilities, dealers, and other destinations while capacities, schedules, customer requirements, and operational conditions continuously change.
INFORM provides optimization software for decision-intensive automotive logistics processes. Our solutions help logistics service providers plan operations, coordinate resources, respond to changing conditions, and manage complex vehicle flows.
Explore our solutions for automotive logistics service providers.
Automotive logistics service providers manage many interconnected decisions every day.
Transport capacities and routes need to be planned. Vehicles need to be collected, stored, processed, and delivered according to customer requirements. Available capacities, resources, and inventories have to be coordinated across locations and logistics networks.
At the same time, changes in volumes, schedules, priorities, or available resources can quickly affect multiple processes and customers.
INFORM supports automotive logistics service providers with specialized software solutions for planning, optimizing, and controlling these complex operational processes.
Explore INFORM solutions according to the operational challenge you want to address.
Plan transport networks, capacities, routes, and vehicle distribution while considering operational constraints and changing requirements.
Coordinate vehicle movements, available space, processing activities, and operational resources across logistics locations.
Coordinate inventory processes and maintain transparency across inventory-related operations.
The individual processes may differ, but they share a common challenge: operational decisions have to consider numerous constraints, dependencies, resources, capacities, customer requirements, and changing conditions at the same time.
INFORM develops optimization software for these decision-intensive environments.
Our solutions use mathematical optimization, Operations Research, and artificial intelligence to support operational planning and decision-making.
Depending on the application, this can mean planning transport networks, allocating capacities, coordinating vehicle movements, assigning processing activities, optimizing loads and routes, managing inventories, or adapting existing plans when conditions change.
The result is a structured approach to managing complex automotive logistics operations across different areas of the organization.
Whether your focus is vehicle distribution, transport planning, vehicle movements, processing, load and route planning, or inventory processes, INFORM offers specialized solutions for different areas of automotive logistics.
