Technologies

An integrated technology ecosystem driving logistics performance

Our information system combines leading specialist solutions from the market with in-house applications. Our strength: making them work as a single, consistent and fully integrated system.

A modular architecture, orchestrated by a central middleware

At the heart of the ecosystem, an orchestration middleware connects, synchronises and coordinates every solution. Each application keeps its own responsibilities; the central layer handles their integration.

L4 Logistics information system architecture: client and partner systems exchange data with a central middleware, which orchestrates the WMS, TMS, OMS and reporting, themselves connected to in-house tools and third-party solutions, and then drive logistics operations.
