§  Mobility

OTM 6.3 A Wealth of Innovation!


Mobility § Access to information and business

functions across multiple smart phone and mobile platforms

§ Examples: –  Carrier tender accept/reject –  Shipment status update –  Order/shipment track & trace –  Business Intelligence

§  iPad Support –  iPad / Safari as certified browser for

most OTM users interfaces

Mobile OTM User Interface


Mobility

Carriers can respond to

shipment tenders

Map Shipment Locations

Use links to Call or Email

Map Shipment Locations


Mobility Add Shipment Events using Smartphone

GPS

Enter & save Shipment Events

Location can populate automatically based on

GPS info


Mobility iPad Support

§ Goal is to provide mobile access on various devices, including iPad tablets

§ Safari on the desktop is fully supported § Safari on the iPad has some limitations § Try it and let us know what you think


Fleet Management Resource Availability Load Plan Mobile Comm. Driver Pay /

Billing Assign / Dispatch

Oracle Fleet Management

Plan •  Orders & Shipments •  Inbound / Outbound •  Cross-Hub •  Load Configuration •  Dynamic & Static Routing •  Multi-mode

Execute •  Configurable Dispatch Board •  Mobile communications •  En-route hot load assignment •  Event management •  Brokerage “job” management

Monitor

• Activity & status tracking • Regulatory reporting • Asset inventory (pools) • Sensor based data capture

Settlement •  Driver payroll •  3rd party suppliers •  Customer billing •  Allocations / Accruals •  GL Coding


§  Fleet Planning –  Slip-seating (truck shared between drivers) –  Straight-trucks & kits –  Backhaul assignment –  Get the Driver Home - opportunistic backhaul

v/s return empty –  Find “home” for order – show options on map

§  Map-based Workspace –  Map embedded with Decision Control Center –  More map actions

§  Business Intelligence –  Fleet specific metrics & dashboard

Fleet Management Enhancements


Multi-Tier Networks § Multi-Tier Networks

–  Multiple locations for consolidation and/or deconsolidation activities

§ Use cases –  Multi-modal networks –  Cross-docks –  Hub-and-spoke (local P&D

with linehaul) –  Zone skipping

§ New optimization framework § Simplified setup


Multi-Tier Networks

§ New mixed-integer programming algorithm

–  OTM automatically discovers all network routing options

–  Improved solution quality & performance

–  E.g., unlimited number of cross-dock / pooling options


Ship Unit Optimization § Load Configuration algorithm was extended to become a generalized

Packing Algorithm –  Used to pack ship units into equipment (existing OTM functionality)

–  Now also used to pack order lines into Ship Units


Scenario Option 1 Option 2

•  Create one pallet (one ship unit) representing the entire order release

•  Ship via LTL at a cost of $95

•  Order Release sent to OTM with four packaged items

•  Each packaged item weighs 40lbs.

•  Mode is unknown when Order Release is created

•  Create multiple ship units for the order release

•  Ship each ship unit individually via small parcel at a cost of $22/carton

•  Total small parcel cost = $88

Ship Unit Building Mode Selection Example


Ship Unit Building Consolidation Example

Port Port

Consolidated Ocean Leg

Supplier B

Supplier A

DC 1

DC 3

Consolidated Pallets Supplier C

DC 2

•  Ship Units (partial pallets) shipped from suppliers on the first leg of a 3-leg shipment

•  Ship Units are repacked for ocean leg to consolidate and increase container utilization


Transportation Sourcing Rate Management

§  Goal: Flexible and efficient maintenance of all rates and tariffs in OTM –  - Top requested enhancement from Customer Advisory Board

§  6.3: Start to expand ‘Bid Procurement’ to encompass ‘Rate Management’ –  Sourcing will utilize OTM’s rating engine to compute costs –  The user can define what rate components to include in a Bid via a rate template –  Sourcing bids will be stored as rate offerings

§  Rate Management Roadmap: –  A single interface to all rate maintenance needs –  Update any component of an existing rate, including accessorial charges –  Do mass updates (add/modify/delete) –  Store / track changes made to rate records –  Business Intelligence: report history and trends


Transportation Business Intelligence

§  Embedded within OTM – not a separate data warehouse

§  Business intelligence for managers & operational users – BI workflows

§  Create user specific reports and dashboards

§  Perform ad hoc analysis §  Proactive alerts


§  NEW Fleet Dashboard –  Fleet Utilization Metrics:

Bobtail, Deadhead, and Loaded miles by Driver and Power Unit

–  Service Metrics: % On Time by Pickup, Delivery for Fleet and Non Fleet

–  Cost Metrics: Cost per Distance and Cost per weight for Fleet and Non Fleet

–  Driver Utilization Metrics: Actual Time Driven, Actual Time Worked and Non Work Time


Compare private fleet service & cost

performance vs. 3rd party carriers


Rail Enhancements Demurrage Management

§ Manage asset expense for both equipment users and equipment owners

–  Captures demurrage transaction based on tracking events –  Agents listen for events and create or update demurrage transaction –  Flexible rules, by carrier, to capture start/end activity, chargeable period,

actual charges –  Generate settlement and liability reports


Additional Resources My Oracle Support

§ Knowledge Document 796594.1 –  Documentation Library

§  Installation, Admin Guides §  Data Dictionary §  XML Elements Dictionary §  External Programming Interface Guide §  Much, much more

–  TOIs (available soon!)
