However, these stricter targets also offer opportunities to save resources, make processes more efficient and reduce costs. <\/p>\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The solution<\/h5>\n\n<p>This is where the AddRoute (Ad hoc Dynamic Route) project comes in: Haulage companies aim to plan their routes as efficiently and effectively as possible, but often lack the necessary information to do so. On the basis of photos from the truck loading space, freight forwarders receive a basis for decision-making to optimize the use of truck space and to estimate the relocation costs. This allows an ad hoc decision to be made as to whether an additional order would be economical and still fit on the loading area of a truck. Thanks to more efficient capacity utilization in long-distance transport, costs can be saved and additional orders can be implemented. At the same time, emissions are reduced, which leads to a better overall ecological balance.<\/p>\n\n<p>Photos: Fraunhofer IML\/Vinzenz Neugebauer<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group mz-ansprechpersonen-gruppe has-background is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"background-color:#f8f8f8\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Contact person:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns mz-ansprechpersonen is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium is-resized is-style-rounded\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"214\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/ce-logit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Portraet_Jonas_Stenzel-214x300.jpg\" alt=\"Portrait_Jonas_Stenzel\" class=\"wp-image-13077\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1;object-fit:cover;width:99px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/leistungszentrum-logistik-it.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Portraet_Jonas_Stenzel-214x300.jpg 214w, https:\/\/leistungszentrum-logistik-it.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Portraet_Jonas_Stenzel-732x1024.jpg 732w, https:\/\/leistungszentrum-logistik-it.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Portraet_Jonas_Stenzel-768x1075.jpg 768w, https:\/\/leistungszentrum-logistik-it.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Portraet_Jonas_Stenzel-1097x1536.jpg 1097w, https:\/\/leistungszentrum-logistik-it.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Portraet_Jonas_Stenzel-1080x1512.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/leistungszentrum-logistik-it.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Portraet_Jonas_Stenzel-980x1372.jpg 980w, https:\/\/leistungszentrum-logistik-it.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Portraet_Jonas_Stenzel-480x672.jpg 480w, https:\/\/leistungszentrum-logistik-it.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Portraet_Jonas_Stenzel.jpg 1143w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 214px) 100vw, 214px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Jonas Stenzel<br\/><\/strong>Fraunhofer IML<br\/><a href=\"mailto:jonas.stenzel@iml.fraunhofer.de\">Send mail<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized is-style-rounded\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"214\" height=\"214\" src=\"https:\/\/ce-logit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/OE160-2018-GeorgWichmann-e1717486160997.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17834\" style=\"object-fit:cover;width:103px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/leistungszentrum-logistik-it.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/OE160-2018-GeorgWichmann-e1717486160997.jpg 214w, https:\/\/leistungszentrum-logistik-it.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/OE160-2018-GeorgWichmann-e1717486160997-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 214px) 100vw, 214px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Georg Wichmann<br\/><\/strong>Fraunhofer IML<br\/><a href=\"mailto:georg.wichmann@iml.fraunhofer.de\">Send mail<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AddRoute enables freight forwarders to quickly assess free truck capacities and schedule additional orders in a targeted manner.
