How does it work?

The Simacan platform consists of multiple elements and interfaces to make sure all persons in the transport delivery chain are simultanously involved and informed in various ways.

Simacan Control Tower: The desktop interface where you can manage your transport fleet end-to-end.
Arrival monitor: The display at a shop, hub, distribution centre or depot providing information such as transport delivery time.
Driver notifications: Combining TMS/FMS information and informing the driver real-time with delivery notifications.
Customer notifications: Informing consumers about their delivery times.

Simacan Success Stories

“Once our truck drivers had left the distribution centre, we literally had no idea where they were. Therefore, we decided to invest in optimizing our planning and gaining maximum supply chain visibility. We use Simacan to monitor all the trips and also for all the associated communication. Besides that, we use a central advanced planning & scheduling (APS) system from Quintiq. Between them, those two systems give us optimal support – from strategic planning all the way through to the actual trips.”

Alberdine van Velzen, Manager Supply Chain Planning at Jumbo
