Our work · Logistics

Opex Logistics.

A logistics business that outgrew spreadsheets. Kodie has built its operating platform up over several years, and it keeps growing as the business does.

Before

How the week used to go.

✕

Quoting by hand from spreadsheets, differently every time

✕

Routine back-office admin done by manual data entry

✕

Clients emailing and phoning for quotes, bookings and paperwork

✕

Job-level cost and margin invisible until long after the fact

After

How it goes now.

✓

A live pricing engine, fixed routes, fuel surcharges and per-client rate cards give instant, consistent quotes

✓

Supplier invoices, payment approvals and job intake handled automatically

✓

Clients quote, book and pull their own documents through their portal

✓

Finance sees cost and margin per job, as it happens

What we built

From problem to platform.

The build, at a glance.

01

Operations web app

Planning and scheduling, pricing and quoting, invoicing and management reporting for dispatch, ops and finance staff.

02

Live pricing engine

Fixed routes, fuel surcharges and per-client rate cards, quotes that are instant and consistent instead of hand-built.

03

Client portal

Clients log in to get quotes, book jobs, manage their own address book, and view invoices and statements themselves.

04

Companion mobile app

For on-the-road use, alongside the office system.

05

Connected back office

Integrations with the support desk, banking, and courier-exchange and payment networks, supplier invoice processing, payment approvals and ticket-to-booking conversion happen automatically.

In their words

What Opex Logistics say about us.

“

“We’ve gone from an off-the-shelf system that did 50% of what our business needs to our own system running close to 90% of our business.”
