Laude Smart Intermodal S.A. is a rapidly growing company offering transport and logistics services. Thanks to the implementation of the PINQUARK system, the provider has significantly shortened the execution time of key logistics processes, reduced costs and completely eliminated printed documents at selected stages of the supply chain, among other benefits. The new WMS system has also made it possible to increase the level of automation in the modern Laude Logistics Centre located in Poland.
Laude Smart Intermodal S.A. specialises in the comprehensive organisation of transport for various cargo groups using intermodal transport and innovative Laude containers, as well as conventional road, rail, inland waterway and maritime transport. The company carries out intermodal transport using its own resources – a terminal, containers, railway wagons and semi-trailers. It also operates its own intermodal trains connecting Poland with Ukraine, Russia and Moldova. Laude Smart Intermodal S.A. provides reloading services at the Laude Logistics Centre.
Before implementing the PINQUARK WMS, we used a different system. However, as the company grew, we decided to implement an innovative and effective IT solution that would meet our new requirements and allow us to automate key processes. A number of factors influenced the choice of the PINQUARK system, in particular: the supplier's competence and experience in the logistics and transport industry, as well as the fact that PINQUARK does not age – it uses the latest technologies and is developed along with the changing needs of customers. The benefits we derive from the implementation of the new WMS are the best proof that we made the right decision
LAUDE SMART INTERMODAL S.A.
Laud and PINQUARK, or logistics at the highest level
The capabilities offered by PINQUARK functionalities keep pace with the development of Laude Smart Intermodal S.A. The system allows multiple areas of the company's operations – including logistics, transport, quality control, accounting, and warehouse management – to be connected into a coherent, interrelated network, optimising the business efficiency of the entire enterprise.
The implementation of the new system at the Laude Logistics Centre has brought many benefits. It has allowed for:
- increasing the speed of goods dispatch by 32%;
- a reduction in the time taken to dispatch goods by 17%;
- a 35% increase in staff efficiency at the unloading/loading bay and in the warehouse, thanks to the use of UWB sensors;
- reduction of HGV turnaround time in the loading/unloading yard from over an hour to 15 minutes;
- elimination of printed documents in the loading/unloading yard for HGVs and during HGV clearance;
- automating the processes related to the entry of HGVs onto the site
- unloading/loading – informing drivers about the possibility of entering the yard via SMS message;
- minimisation of bottlenecks and throughput issues in the loading and unloading yard;
- automation of warehouse processes, including the ability to handle third-party codes, mill certificates or attestations.
