In Brief
Soditra Logistics, a company specialized in transport and logistics in Belgium, turned to Pepps to modernize its shipment management. Faced with a manual organization, the objective was clear:
- Automate carrier selection, improve parcel tracking, and integrate everything into the warehouse management system (WMS).
Pepps leveraged its expertise in digitalization, dematerialization, and solution development for the logistics and transport sector.
THE CHALLENGE
Reconciling Warehouse and Transport to Streamline Logistics
At Soditra, transport management relied on manual tools with little integration into existing systems.
- Each step — carrier selection, planning, and shipment tracking — was handled separately
-
This approach made coordination between warehouses and transport teams more complex. For both internal teams and end customers, it made real-time visibility of shipments, control over lead times, and quick identification of logistics deviations more difficult.
The challenge? Designing a seamless solution, connected to the WMS, that restores control over the entire transport chain — from dock to delivery.
THE MISSION
Implementation of a Custom TMS for Shipments
To address these challenges, Pepps developed and deployed a custom TMS (Transport Management System) integrated into Soditra’s IT ecosystem. This web and mobile solution automates critical stages of the logistics chain, centralizes information, and streamlines communication between systems.
Key Features of the TMS
The TMS automatically selects the optimal carrier based on cost, lead time, and destination.
- Shipment booking with transport document generation.
- Real-time parcel tracking, with notifications sent to teams and customers.
- Bidirectional integration with the WMS to synchronize flows between warehouse and delivery.
- Access to a logistics performance dashboard with key indicators.
This solution was designed to reduce friction in management processes while improving logistics service quality.
