Scheduling is still broken

90% of over 1B annual shipments in the US require manual intervention.

The State of Scheduling in the 00s

Spreadsheets and phone calls were common, resulting in inefficiencies and errors. 

The State of Scheduling in the 10s

Legacy ERP, WMS and TMS solutions incorporated basic scheduling features in their solutions. Still requires calls/emails to make and update bookings.

The State of Scheduling in the 20s

60% of all shipments are being scheduled via phone calls and emails. Growing but disconnected TMS, WMS, ERP and YMS systems have moved the problem, but have not solved it.

The State of Scheduling in the 30s

AI is omnipresent in business. Autonomous warehouses, autonomous trucks and unmanned terminals leave businesses still relying on siloed systems and manual email/phone calls for scheduling, irrelevant.
