AIMMS - Operations Research in Transport and Logistics

AIMMS has high impact on financial results in the Transport & Logistics industry

Not only is it important to optimize the productivity of your assets by better planning, it is equally important to look ahead and decide on the optimal strategy. However, taking optimal decisions, and taking them consistently is a challenge. In a complex and uncertain world with high energy prices decision makers should no longer rely only on history, hunch and hierarchy. Optimization can do the homework for you; it will allow you to take the best decision.

Shall we show you how we do it?

Customers who use AIMMS to optimize their logistics process are e.g. TNT Express, DHL, Heineken, Shell, Knauf Insulation, and ProRail.

Better decisions with AIMMS will lead to:

Reduced annual transport bill (integrated demand & transport allocation)
More value out of your assets (empty resource optimization)
Yield & Price optimization able to satisfy your customers on short and long term
A more robust tactical plan leading to less disturbances on day of operation
Optimal supply chain and network design
Optimal routing of products throughout your network
Optimal sourcing of carriers and dispatching of transport orders (spot versus contract)
