Optimization of logistics processes: Migration and new development of a web-based solution for empties container management<\/h1>\n<\/div>

The goal of this project was to optimize the customer’s empty container shipping process by replacing and completing an existing MS Access-based system with a more modern web-based solution with enhanced functionality. The new solution should enable automated prioritization, planning and documentation of the shipping of empty containers, facilitate collaboration with carriers and reduce shipping costs by optimizing shipping volumes.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Challenge<\/h2>\n<\/div>

The initial situation of this project presented us with a number of challenges, including the migration of the part of the project that had previously been developed by another service provider. Due to the existing structures and limitations of the old system, extensions and adaptations were significantly more difficult. It was of paramount importance to ensure that the transition to the new solution did not disrupt the client’s ongoing operations. The migration of the existing system to new Tomcat servers and the integration of further developments into the previously developed solution presented the project team with additional challenges.<\/p>\n<\/div>
