Efficiently consolidate and redistribute partial shipments with full control at every handling step. cadis® TH provides structured cross docking for LTL and groupage flows — ensuring accurate sorting, complete traceability and zero information gaps across consolidation terminals.

About Company

LTL and groupage operators consolidate partial shipments from many different customersand origins into full loads for onward transport — a process that depends onprecise sorting and handling at every consolidation terminal. Even smallsorting errors or handling gaps can affect multiple shipments and customers atonce.

As shipment volumes and terminal complexity grow, LTL and groupage operators needstructured, repeatable cross-docking processes that maintain full traceabilityof every shipment — from inbound arrival through consolidation to outbounddispatch.

The Problem

Crossdocking for LTL and groupage flows involves constant handling: shipments arebroken down, sorted, and rebuilt into new loads multiple times before reachingtheir destination. Without structured processes, this handling introducessorting errors, information gaps and lost traceability.

‍

Partial shipments are sorted manually at consolidation terminals, increasing the risk of misrouted or mishandled freight.
Handling steps are not consistently documented, creating information gaps between inbound arrival and outbound dispatch.
Tracing an individual shipment across multiple handling steps and terminals is slow and often incomplete.
Terminal staff lack real-time guidance on how and where to sort each shipment, slowing down consolidation.
Errors discovered late in the process are costly to correct and can delay entire outbound loads.
