Question Everything
With Intelligence

AI planning models for barge, rail, truck, terminal and port operations, built by people who speak your planners' language.

Why companies come to us

Three reasons to bring AI into planning

Every planning department is different, but in our conversations with planners and directors the same three drivers keep coming back.

Knowledge concentration

When the operation leans on one or two specialists, every holiday, sick day, accident or retirement becomes an operational risk.

A puzzle too complex

With thousands of combinations, even the best planner leaves money on the table. Optimization pays itself back quickly.

Curiosity about AI

AI is becoming a commodity. Many decision makers simply want to explore what it can do for their operation, and we make that a safe first step.

Where we work

Specialists in port and hinterland logistics

We focus on one world and know it inside out: moving cargo between seaport and hinterland, and the vessel operations in port.

Barge

Round trips, terminal calls, fleet and capacity.

Rail

Train slots, wagons and shuttle schedules.

Truck

Drivers, bookings, full and partial loads.

Terminals

Inland and sea terminals, quay and yard.

Tug & boatmen

Vessel operations and crew allocation in port.

Container, liquid bulk and dry bulk.

Our real differentiator

We speak planning

Optimization techniques are widely available. Understanding your operation isn't. Our team has spent more than a decade designing planning tools alongside barge, terminal and transport planners. We know the lingo, the exceptions and the unwritten rules, so we spend your budget on solving the problem, not on learning it.

Rules we already model
Terminal call windows and cargo windows
Berth allocation with minimal internal transport
Tug power and boatmen team allocation
Driver skills, time windows and haulier contracts
Stock levels and delivery windows for bulk
Solutions

Built on proven foundations

Every solution starts from a planning model we already use in practice, tailored to your rules. That means a shorter time to production and lower risk.

How we work

Consultancy depth, lean delivery

Human and artificial intelligence together, delivered in clear steps with a go/no-go decision at every gate.

The planner decides

Our models propose, explain and prove. Your planner stays in control.

From data to plan

Integration, problem context, optimization and web interfaces, built as one pipeline.

Small steps, shared risk

From problem statement to SaaS, with QEWI investing in the first phase when the fit is right.

Shared development

Share the development, not the risk

New planning challenges are rarely unique to one company. When we develop a new model together, QEWI retains and keeps improving the IP, and you pay only part of the development cost. You get a tailored solution at a fraction of the price.

Lower cost

You fund part of the model, not all of it.

Lower risk

Phased delivery with a go/no-go decision at every step.
