Calculate annual budgets

The budget process that most companies have towards the end of a year, is the most important period for analysing what decisions are to be taken for the next year, and often different strategies are discussed. Route99 can deal with such situations and provide the operator with key figures for his budgets.

An instant “push-of-a-button” up-to-date end of year’ budget.

By combing actual information and future schedules, the operator will have an instant combined actual/budget projection.

For many operators, updating the budget with best known information is important. To do this, the operator need to merge information from voyages already performed with a future projection based on best available knowledge.

Route99 can effectively provide a toll, whereby at the push of a button, the operator can see what his best revised budget at any point in time will be.ø
