ANUBIS is an integrated corporate system that supports the operations of the entire logistics cycle for every company within the Transfesa Group, as well as administration and management control. It is a reliable and consolidated system that was fully implemented since 1998 and that is constantly evolving technologically to adapt to the needs of each client and each logistics project.

As a result, all the new technological advances and logistical innovations that are introduced into the system are extended to every traffic and service carried out by the Group companies, throughout the entire client supply chain.

ANUBIS allows for complete tracking of transported goods during all the transportation and storage processes carried out by the Transfesa Group through the following modules:

• Management and detailed tracking of the road and railway transport: state and location of transport means and goods (containers, swap bodies, chassis, coils, delivery notes, etc), including forecasted and actual date and time of every movement.
• Management of container terminals and intermodal traffic.
• Management ofcompounds and vehicle distribution.
• Management of warehouses and goods distribution
• Technical maintenance of containers, swap bodies, wagons, trucks, trailers, etc.
• Car workshops
• Invoicing and Self-Invoicing.
• Commercial, financial and administrative management.

Transfesa´s corporate system is equipped with the latest technologies, allowing it to work efficiently in the following operations:

• Radiofrequency terminals in compounds and warehouses
• Integration of tracking information via satellite if the transport means is equipped with the necessary device
• Access to mobile user systems via GPRS/UMTS
• Identification of mobile assets through RFID, within the project TRANSF-ID

ANUBIS is a completely flexible platform which allows adapting the level of information to the specific needs of every client and traffic.

This system allows for tracking of the goods throughout the entire transportation and storage cycle, providing continuous information about the location and the condition transport means and goods.. Also, it provides at any moment the most up-to-date tracking information, as well as the estimated time for passing control points and reaching destination. This information is generated both internally by Transfesa staff, and by external sources, such as European railway operators and other collaborators and GPS tracking systems, when available.

The system is an application developed within the "Windows" environment, and its use is restricted to employees of Transfesa Group to ensure maximum confidentiality of information. A strict, three-level security system assures that a user can only access information related to his or her company, geographical centre and authorized business lines.
