IT system offers road freight module

GAUTENG-BASED Compu- Clearing offers a gamut of software packages to the clearing and forwarding industry with its road freight module a stable option for freight forwarders looking to succeed in a booming market. “What you see is what you get,” says MD Johan Du Preez who feels the road freight module is a stable package that needs very few user-modifications. The focus is on way-bills, tracking and delivery. “Road transport, as part of the logistics chain, is a tight market with low margins, especially in non-contract type distribution. Everyone with a truck is out there offering transport at a low cost. It’s not rocket science. “Transporting is as old as ox wagons,” and as Du Preez adds, “our products are tools to do business.”
