Interview: Complex planning - when are individual solutions required?

In an interview with OPTANO Business Development: When standard software reaches its limits, what added value individual software solutions create - and how they are realized at OPTANO.

Complex CEP transport networks

How a data-driven proof of concept can identify short-term linehaul cost savings of ~5-10% - laying the foundation for holistic network optimization.

Inefficiency in distribution

Rising customer expectations, volatile markets and growing demand are challenging distribution. Operational measures alone are often not enough to eliminate long-term inefficiencies.

Firefighting in the supply chain

Machine breakdowns, delivery delays or plant closures are everyday occurrences in supply chains. Many companies still react improvised, manually and with little transparency.

Mathematical optimization for the parcel industry

The peak season for parcel services begins with the holidays. Shipment volumes rise sharply, while customers expect particularly fast and punctual deliveries right now.

Optimization of transport modes

Optimized transport mode selection lowers costs, improves service levels and reduces CO₂. This is how data-based distribution planning with mixed-mode strategies works.

Optimization instead of standstill

Global supply chains, volatile markets and rising costs are putting a strain on inbound logistics. Excel is no longer enough - modern optimization creates transparency and security of supply.

Rhythm Wheel based production planning

Rhythm-based production planning creates stability, reduces costs and brings calm to complex production processes.

Trade-offs as a challenge

For companies, trade-offs are an everyday reality and a challenge that needs to be mastered.

Reduce CO₂ emissions and save costs at the same time

Mathematical optimization makes it possible to save CO2 without major investment - and reduce costs at the same time. We show you how!
