Total Transport System

Integrated transport optimisation and management solution for large delivery fleets

Total Transport System (TTS) is a fully-integrated transport optimisation and execution system - created through the tight integration of Paragon's truck routing, delivery scheduling and resource optimisation software with Isotrak's real-time transport plan execution and management solutions.

TTS enables retailers and distribution companies with large fleets to plan efficient, reliable, multi-shifted transport schedules that can be re-optimised during execution, resulting in substantial operational cost benefits, environmental gains and service improvements.

By integrating Isotrak's fleet management and telematics with Paragon's optimisation intelligence, TTS:

• Optimises route plans and transport schedules according to actual resources and driver shifts available
• Automatically reallocates second trips to drivers during execution
• Provides active, accurate reporting, and reliable alerting, with schedules continually re-timed in response to early/late running, meal breaks, driver reallocation etc
• Maintains transport efficiency as a complex transport plan is executed
• Produces a wide range of ‘actual versus plan’ reports, enabling continuous performance improvement
• Delivers real-time, cost-effective logistics planning, scheduling, execution and management with the convenience of a single-platform, managed, hosted service  

TTS is a complete, end-to-end solution for medium and large logistics operators looking to gain a competitive advantage through more effective utilisation of their fleet and manpower resources.

It succeeds where previous similar attempts by other providers have failed, thanks to an extraordinarily tight degree of integration between optimisation and execution components. This is achieved by providing TTS as a tightly managed hosted service, with Paragon and Isotrak software running in parallel on professionally managed high-end server hardware in a world-class data facility.

As a consequence TTS is scalable, modular and highly configurable, and can dramatically improve the dissemination of transport performance insight throughout an organisation.

TTS will be the ideal solution for distribution centre based fleets of 100 vehicles or more, where there are multiple trips per driver per day, and multi-shifted vehicles - including large retail-store delivery fleets, related third-party logistics (3PL) providers and inbound goods suppliers.

TTS is also suitable for other distribution centre based fleets of similar scale, where a single, hosted, integrated solution is required. In all cases TTS accommodates both daily and fixed-route scheduling.

"The integration of transport planning, optimisation, execution and management has long been a 'holy grail' for companies looking to keep control of costs and service as the day unfolds. TTS's ability to continually re-optimise resource allocation translates into a fantastic commercial advantage for medium and large delivery fleet operators."
