Capacity Usage

Match boats to orders to routes under constraints.

The objective of the logistics team is to always get the right boat (tugboats, barges, containers) at the right location at the right time to minimize delays with cost under control.

However, there is only a limited number of barges, each barge can only be used for some products, they have a specific constraints (routes, tonnage, speed…). And many things are thrown at the logistics team every day: asset failures, production changes, absentees, yet customers requirements and timeline are unchanged. As such, any planning would soon decay, requiring frequent updates.

Metronome helps match stock, boats, human resources and production batches to serve customer orders by continuously planning throughout the ebbs and flows of the day.

The solution supports the planning department with a cloud based plugin to their production planning system in their ERP, a smartphone app to track execution on the ground and a bespoke dashboard for the leadership on a big wall.

In summary, we facilitate exchanges with fleet operators and take away the need for any excel planning work. On top of that, the data we collect is aggregated over time to help you leverage valuable insight to build cases for strategic investment decisions.
