Courier, Express & Parcel Software Suite

BEUMER Group's CEP Software Suite is the trusted choice for leading Courier, Express & Parcel operators who are looking to boost performance, streamline operations, and unlock the full potential of their automated parcel handling systems.

Our advanced software for courier, express and parcel operations optimises the entire process for your CEP parcel handling system, ensuring intelligent parcel identification, seamless integration, precise material flow control, and comprehensive supervision end-to-end across the entire sortation system.

Next-generation COURIER, EXPRESS AND PARCEL SOFTWARE

With a lifespan exceeding 20 years with proper maintenance, BEUMER Group’s sortation system solutions ensure a future-proof investment to maintain a sustainableCEP operation.

Likewise, our CEP Software Suite incorporates cutting-edge technologies like simulations, emulations, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), Neural Networks, heat maps, and 3D visualisations.

For daily operation, the BEUMER CEP Software Suite suite offers configurable virtual desktops, predictive maintenance forecasting, real-time flow visualisation, and intuitive graphical layouts of your operations.

Together, our parcel handling system and software suite capabilities form a comprehensive solution, empowering you to address future CEP industry challenges and leverage opportunities stemming from evolving customer behaviors.

  • Enhanced sortation logic is the key driver behind improvements in operation efficiency, and helps to boost the performance of the entire sorting process. Our Legal for Trade certified equipment also ensures revenue protection by capturing and storing barcode scanner images, whilst the visual confirmation of a parcel’s condition and location facilitates the handling of any customer claims.

    Tools such as BEUMER Optical Character Recognition (OCR), BEUMER Video Coding System (VCS), and BEUMER Parcel Intelligence use sophisticated AI models and high-resolution images to minimize the manual handling of parcels, which contributes significantly to streamlining sorting operations and reducing costs.

CEP software AND data

CEP operations generate an increasing amount of data from an expanding number of sources, but this data is only useful if it is analysed and understood properly.

At BEUMER Group, we have extensive experience with working with data from live operations and have used these learnings to extend our services to the predictive and prescriptive level. BEUMER’s digital capability offers a growing suite of data-driven services to enable staff at the maintenance, operational, and management levels to make reliable and informed decisions.

 

 

Data Visualisation

When working with data, organisations sometimes focus solely on the collection of data, and miss out on the outcome of working with data.

At BEUMER Group, we believe that the value of data lies in the decisions it leads to. To make data relatable, we work with data visualisation on a number of different abstraction layers:

  • The most complex and challenging layer is the dashboard layer, which, on one side, allows users to mine data and reach a deep understanding of different scenarios, but on the other hand also requires a certain system insight and analytical approach.
  • To support CEP operations in navigating the noise, we offer a number of “translations”, such as strategic KPI’s, OEE’s, sustainability index and process overview, each designed to provide users with a simpler operational overview.
  • To complete the visualisation package, we offer a digital twin — which turns the layout into a storyteller. The BEUMER FLOW Twin provides visualisation of flow and data in real-time, as well as historical data, and provides an easy and intuitive understanding of an otherwise complex system.

Our CEP value proposition

The key components to accomplishing the strategic ambition for your CEP operations are an overall efficient and reliable software solution, a flexible and expandable framework, data transparency, and a professional user experience for different user groups within your organisation. With our CEP software value proposition we focus on teams, tools, and systems:

Software and Data Solutions

Our CEP Software and Data solutions act as the interface between the actual physical system and the staff operating, maintaining, and managing the system. To enable users to make faster and better decisions, visualisation of data is provided at different abstraction layers ranging from dashboards to the digital twin. Data transparency is crucial to understanding current performance and optimising for the future. The Software and Data solution therefore includes the ability to share data with existing Business intelligence (BI) solutions.

Operations & Maintenance team

The right tools, the right views, and a professional software user experience is what the maintenance, operations and management team within your organisation need to enable them to excel in their respective jobs while also operating with a leaner O&M team.

When linking the parcel handling system with the Software & Data solutions and the resident O&M team, a CEP organisation will achieve what we call data-driven asset management.

Data DRIVEN asset management

Understanding and working with data is extremely valuable.  This is particularly important in view of the parcel handling system’s key role in achieving and maintaining high-capacity sortation throughput that maximises CEP productivity whilst minimising errors.

With this in mind, BEUMER Group has established a secure data warehouse to which data is streamed in real-time from an ever growing number of live operations.

Benefits

A partnership with BEUMER GROUP

Selecting the right solution also involves selecting the right CEP software partner to work with.
