Optimize loading products straight off the production line to orchestrate production, warehousing, and transportation plans.
Challenges
The movement of products directly from production to various deployment destinations is challenged due to the confluence of production, warehousing, and transportation.
- There is a mismatch between pre-built stock transfer orders (STOs) and what gets produced.
- Warehouse Management Systems can’t efficiently handle line-to-truck.
- Schedule compliance by the production plant isn’t acceptable.
- Without the buffer of the warehouse storage, line-to-truck struggles to have a ready supply of trailers that match production.
Significant Benefits of AutoScheduler.AI MnS

- MnS focuses on creating transportation requirements days in advance so “best cost carriers” can be engaged.
- As production changes, MnS reschedules transportation where possible to match production schedules.
- MnS creates and transmits a recommended transportation plan.
- On the hour, the need and timing of trailers and inventory are updated.
