Logistic information is key for greenhouse builders. The project needs to go flawlessly; especially the actual delivery on site. The building crew is ready and the plants are scheduled to arrive on fixed days so a tight schedule applies. A standard Track & Trace system is not good enough so Share Logistics developed an interactive and tailor-made T&T system: SLIDE.
The customer as well as the project manager on site gets the login details. SLIDE allows the project-manager to set priorities per container if needed. Which containers should come first? Have they been released & Customs cleared yet? Also, all relevant documents can easily be up- and downloaded in SLIDE. The first steps towards development of a SLIDE -App are in the works.
Martin van Dueren–Den Hollander is General Manager at Share Logistics: ”This system provides a wealth of convenience to the greenhouse-builders. All data is readily accessible to them. Most important: the system is truly interactive and bridges different time-zones. Time and money saved!”
Roland Steenbakker, Sales Manager at Share Logistics: ”With the introduction of 'SLIDE' we managed to further enhance communication and data exchange for our customers. This results in further optimization of final deliveries to the growers. If greenhouse-builders get complimented by satisfied growers at destination we consider our mission accomplished.”
