| Critical Needs: |
In the application-driven field of contract and freight logistics, the security and efficiency of IT assets are high priority for organisations. A large quantity of information, partly in real-time, is needed to be able to plan and enable logistics services that satisfy customer needs. If logistical information is lacking for Rhenus Transport’s customers, it is impossible for them to load aircraft, vessels and trucks or to book orders, resulting in expensive down times. |
