Our network planning solution supports you on many levels

Optimize automotive distribution with smart network planning software

INFORM's network planning is based on many years of experience in vehicle logistics and offers a proven solution to redesign complex distribution networks quickly and cost effectively.

Network planning is immensely important because vehicles are unique compared to most other types of freight. Specialized vehicles are required because they are more susceptible to external damage and are so individual that they cannot be easily replaced with alternative units.

  • Strategic Planning
    Optimized planning of transport volumes in a region and simulation of different scenarios with possible network nodes, transport routes and logistics providers.
  • Innovative Optimization Technology
    Simulation of different scenarios in the network in the shortest possible time at the highest technical level, taking into account all relevant data for an optimized distribution network.
  • Consideration of individual constraints
    The system takes into account regional and customer-specific restrictions in the distribution network due to delivery dates and existing contracts.
  • Comprehensive reporting
    Real-time reporting and analysis of key business metrics for network planning.
  • Tendering Portal
    Automated tendering of transportation services based on optimized network data, with bids received via standardized interfaces.
