For most companies in manufacturing, retail and transportation, logistics costs have a considerable impact on profitability. A smooth-running shipping operation is key to improve margins. To achieve this, you need strong, integrated planning solutions capable of managing your entire supply chain.
SAP solutions are known for their broad coverage and adaptability to meet end-to-end business process needs, which makes them the preferred choice by many companies. This comes with the downside that some industry-specific requirements cannot always be covered in detail with standard SAP functionality.
This is where an add-on like ORTEC for SAP ERP and SAP S/4HANA can help. It is a much better alternative compared to complex custom developments or additional investments into advanced SAP Transportation Management.

How can I achieve more transparency and lower costs for the entire transport logistics?
With ORTEC, you reduce transport means and planning times, increase vehicle utilisation and reliably comply with replenishment processes.
And you can do this with reduced complexity, high transparency and complete integration in SAP ERP and SAP S/4 HANA.
How can I achieve planning reliability regarding the purchase of loading spaces, direct order creation and the assurance of delivery dates?
How can we achieve higher container utilisation when our distributors take orders from customers, also considering different carton sizes?
This is part of the standard process in our SAP transport management systems. As soon as the sales order, the utilisation of the container is automatically planned in the background and graphically displayed in the sales order.
There are even customers who monitor the utilisation of the container live on a second screen while the order is being entered, so that they can then possibly offer the customer special offers or replenishment items.
Is it possible to use the loading optimisation software to quickly and cost-effectively add items that are not initially included in the order?
ORTEC’s SAP integrated Loading Optimisation is a very powerful tool that is used in many cross-industry sectors.
ORTEC generates loading proposals based on SAP documents (deliveries, sales orders, purchase orders, etc.) – directly also with a graphical loading image in SAP. This graphic is also changeable, i.e. adjustments can actually be made in the truck or container by “drag & drop”.
Our SAP transport management solutions are integrated and available in SAP ERP or SAP S/4HANA respectively.
Is your transport optimisation software also available in modular form, so that the software only covers the functionalities required in the special case?
Our transport management system is also modular. The optimisation tools for shipping carton, pallet or hold are either available as a single module or can be combined with the desired individual functions.
