Under the Consolidation and Load Planning module, users have the ability
to leverage transportation cost savings opportunities through building consolidated
shipments and loads across modes.The
scope of consolidation functionality spans from origin and destination side
zone-based order-level consolidation to fully automated, complex multi-modal
consolidation across a vast pool of orders and shipments.Users can build consolidations from an order
central view or allow the system to automatically build consolidated loads and
display the results.Full drill down
capability exists on every consolidated shipment or load, with piece/order
level detail across the lifecycle of an order.
Finally, the Nextjet rating engine factors in cost allocation for orders
across a consolidated load, utilizing weight, cube or other denominators for
costing.
