Tank container transport
Tank container transport happens in various circumstances. Transportation varies in modality and weather conditions. All of these circumstances influence maintenance of the tank containers. Some tank containers need to undergo maintenance or repairs more often than others. Most logistic businesses add the maintenance and repair of tank containers to their general expenses. Usually, it is a massive expense. Adaption developed a specific software module, Maintenance & Repair, to monitor and predict the needs and costs of maintenance. This solution offers companies control of maintenance and repair. Maintenance is scheduled more efficiently to prevent more expensive repairs.
Tank container transport software
In comparison to the transport of a regular container, transporting a tank container requires more attention. Registering and administering necessary information, like hazardous substances, trailers and chassis, is done following pre-set standards. Software that can process this information securely and reliably will lead to fewer mistakes and reduced costs and time. The system uses all available data to predict where and when a tank container needs maintenance. Through extensive analysis, the software predicts when maintenance is necessary. Efficient maintenance planning ensures a higher availability rate of a business’ tank container fleet, which eventually will lead to increased revenue.
“By making very precise analyses we are able to prevent extra repair costs. We can optimize our M&R costs and availability rates”
