Industrial logistics - one desk across plants.
One account across plants for mixed industrial freight - contract lanes on our fleet, spot overflow on Tranzfort, shutdown and project windows, TMS on the trips we run.
Products we haul
5 typesMulti-plant contract lanes
Standing FTL across industrial belts
Spot & surge overflow
Labeled Tranzfort when plants need extra wheels
Shutdown / turnaround cargo
Windowed heavy and packaged moves
Project & construction feeds
Site deliveries with axle-aware routing
Mixed body programs
Tipper, open, flatbed, tanker, LCV under one desk
What goes wrong
- Nationwide industrial shippers juggle contract lanes, spot demand, and multiple plants with different gate rules.
- Fragmented transporters multiply admin, GST noise, and blind spots when something fails on the road.
- Shutdown and project windows need reserved capacity - not a broker scramble the week of outage.
- Manufacturing SKU pages and heavy vertical pages do not replace an account layer that mixes body classes across sites.
How we run it
- 1.Enterprise-style account coordination: one commercial relationship, many plants, mixed body classes.
- 2.Contracted core lanes on company trucks; spot and extra capacity on Tranzfort - labeled, never blended into owned counts.
- 3.Shutdown, turnaround, and project windows planned with the desk before the outage week.
- 4.TMS as the operational layer for dispatch, documentation, and client visibility across plants.
- 5.Clear split from Manufacturing: this page is the multi-plant mixed-freight account; manufacturing is production-window SKU FTL.
Corridors
- Multi-plant inbound and outbound across industrial belts.
- Project and shutdown cargo on scheduled windows.
- Nationwide spot and contract mix on repeat and ad-hoc lanes.
- Cross-vertical feeds (e.g. plant materials + packaged outbound) under one account.
Equipment
- Asset mix aligned during program design: LCV, tipper, open, flatbed, tanker
- Dedicated fleet where contracts warrant
- Tranzfort for extra trucks on the day
- TMS close-out on every contracted trip
FAQ
How is this different from manufacturing logistics?+−
Manufacturing focuses on production-linked inbound/outbound SKU flows and shift windows. Industrial logistics is the multi-plant account for mixed body classes, contract-plus-spot mix, and shutdown / project cargo.
Can ZAFTYS manage contract and spot together?+−
Yes. Contracted lanes on company trucks. Spot and extra capacity on Tranzfort. GST billing on trips we run. Overflow is always labeled.
What visibility do multi-plant teams get?+−
ZAFTYS TMS is the operational layer for dispatch, documentation, and client visibility across plants and lanes.
How do you reduce transporter fragmentation?+−
One commercial relationship with ZAFTYS replaces juggling multiple informal carriers for core and surge volume across sites.
