Operate & Monitor

With the Mandata TMS in place we can now comfortably manage between 400 and 500 jobs per day.

The flexibility of the system has allowed us to grow to the size that we are now.

Without a doubt, if we hadn’t had Mandata on board we couldn’t have gotten to where we are today.

We started out with 4 regular customers, 6 drivers and a paper-based manual system.  We now manage over 100 accounts and the Mandata TMS is actively helping us to manage our growth, without having to employ additional staff.

Because of the nature of the business, we found it difficult to find a transport management system which could work for us; but Mandata gave us the option to create bespoke functionality to suit our way of working, and we’ve never looked back.

We continually look to add value to our customers. Access to real-time data around fuel usage, economy and vehicle wear-and-tear thanks to tracking and driver behaviour technology, enables us to reduce fuel and maintenance costs further, producing savings that we can then pass on to customers.

As well as providing peace-of-mind, it will enable us to meet our obligation to provide fleet emission reports as a FORS member. This will include evidential information about CO² emissions data and fleet performance, illustrating how we are reducing vehicle environmental impact.

By automating our manual processes the Mandata TMS has helped to organise us, and has saved us considerable time and costs along the way. We’ve got full traceability on all of our jobs from the booking stage through to invoicing. We can recall waste consignment notes and POD’s quickly and easily through our integrated document mangaement module because everything is contained within the one system.

We certainly couldn’t have grown to the size that we are now without Mandata.

Fundamental to our operational success are our Mandata systems which give us the functionality to plan effectively and provide visibility throughout all stages of our work delivering and installing high value equipment for blue chip companies.

Our strong working relationship with Mandata enables us to continually innovate and provide transparency, control and flexibility to meet customer’s ever changing needs and maximise business efficiency.

We use Mandata across our business with links to all depots and information about traffic planning, vehicle tracking, drivers and workshop operations.

It’s a very efficient transport management tool that provides us with immediate access to all the important information we need in one place. We are very happy with it.

Because the pallet network involves partial loads, where there is one pallet going here, one pallet going there, it would be quite easy to lose sight of what pallet is going where!

But Mandata controls everything, it even helps us to control what freight we put into the pallet network so we can monitor our quantities.  With Mandata, we can keep track of our entire operation at the press of a button.

We moved away from on-board tracking to give us greater visibility and control over our operations.  By combining our Mandata TMS with Mandata’s tracking everything is under one roof making the business easier to manage.

As a business we continually strive to improve upon where we are today and the integrated system enables us to work smarter, not harder.

With streamlined administration, we can now see the wood for the trees and we’ve got full traceability and accountability across the Group.

By automating manual processes we’ve made big improvements to the way we work and have been able to achieve efficiencies in all areas of the business.
