TransLogix to Showcase Smart Transport Management Technologies at Australian Trucking Association Convention

Sydney, 29 March 2010

Leading Australian transport and logistics solutions provider TransLogix will be showcasing its latest smart automation and modelling technologies at the Australian Trucking Association Convention (ATC) to be held at the Gold Coast in April.


TransLogix's integrated mobility and web solutions have taken the market by storm. The combination of advanced Transport and Logistics software solutions, PDAs, GPS, 3G & Next G networks and, of course, the internet at affordable prices, means that this technology is transforming the transport industry.

Visitors to ATC will be the first to see the latest offerings from TransLogix including the world class Transit Odyssey optimisation and scheduling solution. Find out how our new modelling services can help transport companies win tenders with more accurately priced proposals or how these tools can be used for route reviews and "what if" analysis to help further optimise fleet utilisation, depot locations and fleet composition.

Australia's first true item-level, management-capable Transport Solution, Opal, will be on show along with the latest in mobility, web, POD, track & trace, compliance, depot scanning and a host of other smarter technologies that enable transport operators to be more efficient and win more business through enhanced services.

TransLogix CEO, Anselm Waterfield, said: "ATC represents a valuable opportunity for transport operators to experience, hands on, the TransLogix technologies and services that can underpin their business management, profitability, safety and compliance."

The benefits of investing in the smarter use of technology can be realised today. Visitors to ATC will be able to discuss with the TransLogix experts how current customers have already:

  • Optimised fleet utilisation by 18%.
  • Doubled revenue without increasing back office staff
  • Eliminated revenue leakage, typically 3% of sales
  • Improved productivity by 25%
  • Increased revenue per hour by over 6% in the first 3 months
