Specialist transport

When the load changes the job.

Specialist transport comes with requirements that standard haulage doesn't.

Different loads, equipment, cleaning, documentation and customer requirements all shape how the work needs to be planned and delivered.

Fargo helps you manage that complexity without adding more work around it.

The challenge
There’s more to plan than the journey.

Getting from A to B is only part of the job.

The right equipment needs to be available. Cleaning and preparation need to happen at the right time. Documentation needs to be in place. Depots, terminals and other modes may all play a part.

And when something changes, your team needs to understand what that means for everything else.

The load shapes the plan.

How fargo helps

Built for specialist intermodal.

Generic transport software starts with the movement.

Specialist transport has to start with what you're moving and what it takes to move it properly.

Fargo's Intermodal Operating System connects the people, systems and activity around the movement, while Ixuite provides the specialist depth these operations need.

Plan around the load

Different work comes with different requirements. Give planners the information they need to organise the job properly from the start.

Manage specialist equipment

Connect jobs with the equipment and resources needed to deliver them, rather than treating every movement as interchangeable.

Keep cleaning in the plan

For operations where cleaning is part of the job, manage it alongside the wider movement rather than as a separate process someone has to remember.

Keep the paperwork with the job

Bring the operational information and documents people need together, reducing the chasing and manual work around specialist movements.

Every stage of the journey
Connect transport, terminals and depots.

Specialist movements don't necessarily begin and end with the road journey.

Loads can move through terminals, depots and different transport modes, with information and responsibility passing between them along the way.

Ixsuite connects those parts of the operation, helping teams manage the movement without losing the specialist requirements around it.

A clearer view of job profitability
Know what the work is really costing.

Complex jobs create costs in more places.

Additional movements, waiting, cleaning, equipment, subcontractors and changes to the plan can all affect what the work is worth.

Connect operational and commercial information so your team has a clearer picture of the job as it's being delivered, not just when it's time to invoice.

Working with your existing systems

Specialist doesn’t have to mean disconnected.

Your customers, partners and other parts of the operation won't necessarily use the same technology you do.

Fargo connects with the systems around your business, helping information move between them while Ixsuite handles the specialist processes at the heart of your operation.

Fargo brings 24 years of intermodal experience together with the specialist transport expertise developed through IXOLUTION and Ixsuite.

That combination matters because specialist transport isn't something you understand from a generic workflow. The details of the operation shape how the technology needs to work.
