Use cases · Operations

Keep reusable packaging where it is needed.

Pallets, totes and racks circulate between your sites and your suppliers. When they pool in the wrong place, lines stop and emergency freight starts.

Why it is hard today.

Containers move through systems that were never designed to track them, so the picture is stitched together from partial records and phone calls.

Shortages are usually noticed at the site that runs out, which is the most expensive place to find out.

How Ergodic helps.

01

Track the pool

Where every container is, where it is heading, and how long it has been there.

02

Predict the shortfall

The model runs the circulation forward and flags the site that will run short, with the date.

03

Redistribute early

Moves are tested before they are made, so you can see the cost of each one against the shortage it prevents.
