These goods are numerous objects, ranging from maize to raw tobacco – however they are not specifically limited to any particular type of goods.

THE SYSTEM
PsyNamix was approached by Sereth Logistics Pty LTD to design a system that would incorporate all functionality within the trucking business and environment, that would help them manage and complete their day to day tasks while keeping abreast of all shipments and truck whereabouts. Sereth Logistics Pty LTD explained the various issues that were faced and often experienced. Their main system in place was an excel spreadsheet that would be updated everyday by Mr Henry Hattingh - Sereth's Operations and Marketing Manager.
TNT - Trucking and Tracking is a system that focuses on all aspects of the trucking Industry. This includes the loading, offloading and travelling of a Client's Shipment. This system is designed by PsyNamix taking into consideration all of the client's needs and more. The system consists of 11 aspects where the user, can include and manage the needed data and task completion. These 11 aspects include, administration functionality, employee and client management, shipment and truck maintenance and bookings. The system also allows for numerous business reports and statistics to be generated while multiple users can access the system, ranging from employee's, drivers as well as client's.
​
On request of Sereth, a colourful notification schema is accessible and implemented. The system should be able to manage the trucks and horses which the business owns as well as tracking of the shipment when in transit. TNT integrates with Mix Telematics using Mix Integrate to generate location data which can be viewed.
