AddHelix by Axians Austria uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms to make logistics services more flexible and more agile
Consumers and businesses want to receive their goods faster and track them at every step. Any weak link in the chain can have a huge knock-on effect for the timely distribution of goods . New standards in Logistics such as shorter deadlines and the need for flexibility is taking hold. And AI can help provide the agility needed. addHelix offers logistics managers the flexibility they need. Using artificial intelligence, it integrates data to create high-performance algorithms. Making it possible to monitor the management and transport of goods.
The main challenge for logistics service companies today is flexibility and automation,” says Stefan Labenski, Division Manager of Business Applications at Axians Austria
In real time, addHelix allows decisions to be made such as route selection using geocoded departure and arrival locations. Also taking account of the traffic conditions, regional weather forecasts and statistics, and toll charges on the various potential routes.
AddHelix ensures flexibility for the logistics manager, who can constantly adapt, and operates independently in a flexible mode,” says Stefan Labenski, “because it’s designed not as a single, centralized program to be plugged into the company’s information system, but as a suite of additional microservices combined into a tailored solution designed specifically for routing and logistics scenarios.”
Stefan Labenski emphasises that this digital transformation approach makes it possible to forget the “machinery” and focus instead on function and performance. Directed by artificial intelligence, the addHelix platform with solutions and microservices ensure flexibility in logistics management and contribute to the versatility of information systems, in companies that use them in a simple way.
