Sigma Informatique renews its confidence in PTV Logistics
Sigma Informatique integrates the latest versions of PTV Logistics components into its Advantage Supply TMS and iCopitole ERP. As the first Digital Services Company (ESN) to become a mission-driven company in 2023, Sigma Informatique is committed to enriching its impact offering for ever greener logistics.
"Our collaboration with PTV Logistics began in 2011," emphasizes Benjamin Bertin, Product Marketing Manager at Sigma Informatique. After an update in 2017, we are now renewing our partnership for several of our transport solutions." As a software publisher, integrator and host of digital solutions, Sigma Informatique is a pioneer in the adoption of responsible digital technology. "This unique positioning is demonstrated by the promotion of thoughtful use of digital technology, through eco-design and the construction of an impact offering," explains Benjamin Bertin.
Gains of 8 to 15%
Faced with growing demand for Green Logistics, Sigma is improving its Advantage Supply offering, a TMS for shippers, and its iCopitole ERP, dedicated to energy distributors for the delivery of fuels, thanks to PTV Logistics. “We have also added an additional PTV component to iCopitole Field Service, which supports companies in the installation and repair of heating equipment,” adds Jacques Hillion, project director at Sigma. Thanks to these developments, Sigma can refine the configuration of its solutions according to the specific needs of its customers. “For example, we can now integrate precise delivery time slots, optimize the number of loads per round, or indicate which operator must travel for each customer,” explains Jacques Hillion. The level of customization is significantly higher than before. » By integrating the latest versions of PTV Logistics APIs, Sigma expects to achieve productivity gains of 8 to 15%, in particular thanks to route optimization, address geocoding, route calculation and map display.
A solid partnership
With a modular and highly configurable catalog, PTV Logistics allows Sigma to offer the best solutions to its customers. "In addition to the expertise and availability of PTV teams, as well as their solid reputation, the quality of the exchanges with their employees convinced us to continue our collaboration," adds Benjamin Bertin. In a few months, Sigma will also integrate automatic planning into iCopitole Field Service to meet the demand of companies carrying out a large volume of interventions. The objective is to plan several thousand interviews per month in an automated manner, while taking into account various business and customer constraints. "We also plan to deploy route optimization on our Advantage Supply TMS," announces Benjamin Bertin. One of our shipping customers, with its own transport fleet, needs to improve the capabilities of its IT tool."
