In Brief
The company Prayon, a key player in the chemical industry, wanted to optimize the management of logistics flows at its industrial site in Engis, Belgium. The objective was twofold :
- Streamline truck entry and exit operations
- Improve coordination with existing internal systems
To meet this challenge, Pepps developed a tailor-made digital solution, integrated with the client’s SAP system, leveraging its expertise in digitalization and dematerialization, as well as in web and mobile business applications.
THE challenge
Improve and centralize the logistical tracking of truck call requests
- Optimize and centralize the logistical tracking of truck calls. The existing organization relied on a system that limited visibility and traceability.
- These constraints could increase drivers’ waiting times and complicate coordination, ultimately impacting overall efficiency.
This setup could create operational frictions and undermine the overall performance of the supply chain.
THE MISSION
An integrated digital solution to optimize logistics flows
To address these challenges, Pepps developed TruckFlowManager (TFM), a web and mobile platform designed to automate truck flow management, directly connected to existing industrial tools. This solution adapts to the specificities of the site and ensures complete control of logistics, from drivers’ arrival to their departure.
- Digital driver registration and authentication via mobile application
- Automatic truck call system with real-time notifications
- Smart weighbridge management with native SAP integration
- Intuitive mobile interface for on-site navigation
- Report and dashboard generation for advanced monitoring
With this solution, Prayon now enjoys connected and streamlined logistics, fully adapted to its on-site industrial needs.
