Orcoda has been providing transport solutions to the market for over 15 years. Orcoda’s proven OLMS optimises and manages complex transport operations to meet Australian regulatory and environmental conditions.

As Savills Australia enhances its services to its occupier clients, OLMS is a valuable tool to optimise their transport solutions and quantify operational benefits. This builds upon other tools Savills uses to compare locations for distribution centres including the Savills NodeMaster platform built by the team at SA1 Property.

Grant Boydell, Orcoda’s General Manager Transport Logistics says “The relationship with Savills will further leverage the use of Orcoda software to optimise transport and distribution networks for both manufacturer/distributors and third party logistics 3PL organisations alike. It will provide Orcoda with an Australia wide network connecting Savills clients with OLMS sales.

“With a comprehensive suite of capabilities, OLMS provides modelling, operational planning, fleet and load allocation, Chain of Responsibility reporting, in-field transparency and enhanced customer services. Whether the objective is cost reduction, customer service improvement or an improved balance, OLMS brings the ultimate in planning and performance reporting to any logistics operation.”

Bob Quirk, Savills Australia’s Supply Chain Director, is experienced in using the current and previous version of the software for both modelling and operations. He said ”Savills selected the OLMS software because we believe it is a step above the competition due to its ability to meet the Australian requirements of fatigue and mass management under Chain of Responsibility legislation plus adapt to meet the constraints of tailored supply chains.”

“Through a comprehensive side-by-side look at historical vs. optimised transport allocation, I’ve been able to identify efficiency savings and to find the right balance between strategy, location, compliance, cost, and customer service. OLMS provides an ability to compare the costs and KPIs of alternative scenarios based on historical data, with detailed reports providing insights into potential improvements. It also provides the opportunity to create an integrated warehousing and distribution solution to last mile challenges.”

“We look forward to the partnership to provide our clients with an accurate assessment of the costs and implications of operational or service level changes, so that they can make the right strategic decisions,” he said.
