Know which lanes are actually making money
Planir holds cost per shipment, lane profitability and fleet cost in the same model as the group accounts, so the route that is losing money is visible in the same place as the number that says volumes are up.
What logistics finance teams are dealing with
Three patterns that show up in nearly every cross-border operator we talk to.
Cost per shipment is worked out after the fact
Linehaul, handling, fuel and subcontracted cost land in the ledger at different times, so the true cost of a shipment is known well after it was quoted. Rates get renewed on a margin that was never verified.
Fleet cost lives outside the operating view
Depreciation, maintenance and replacement capex are managed as an asset schedule while the branches are measured on operating cost. Neither view shows what a vehicle actually costs to run per kilometre.
Every operating country reports differently
Branches run their own books in their own currency and recharge each other for linehaul and agency work. A group number means unwinding those recharges and translating currency by hand each cycle.
What Planir does for a logistics group
Lane and branch detail and the group position in one model, across every operating country.
Lane and branch profitability from live data
Revenue and direct cost are held per lane, per branch and per customer, so the margin on a route is available while the rate is still live rather than at renewal. A lane that stops covering its cost shows up against the volume that made it look healthy.
See multi-entity consolidationFleet cost in the operating model
Depreciation, maintenance, fuel and replacement capex sit alongside the operating P&L, so cost per kilometre and per shipment include the asset rather than sitting beside it. Replacement timing can be modelled against utilisation before it is committed.
See budgeting and planningFuel and rate sensitivity as scenarios
Fuel price, currency and rate changes are drivers in the model, so the effect of a surcharge moving or a contract repricing is visible across every affected lane in one pass rather than estimated lane by lane.

Branches consolidate into one governed group model with intercompany linehaul and agency charges eliminated and currency translated on the basis your auditors expect. A country can still be reported on its own for the local board.
