Built for building materials distribution
Plan every load a building materials distributor runs - direct-to-site, into merchants and wholesalers, installer and showroom drops, home deliveries, same-day van runs and supplier backhauls - across mixed fleets of vans, rigids, curtain-siders, flatbeds, and HIAB, moffett and tail-lift trucks.
TRUSTED BY BUILDING MATERIALS DISTRIBUTORS WORLDWIDE
Building materials distribution is rarely one-shape work. eLogii plans every job in your operation - planned and unplanned, big and small - in a single optimization.
Live construction sites, craned offloads, timed delivery windows and access rules.
Branch and DC drops to your customers' networks, with goods-in cut-offs respected.
Bathroom fitters, flooring installers, kitchen and tile showrooms, on appointment.
Contractors' yards, small builders, and end-customer home deliveries with 2-hour windows.
Forgotten parts, samples and top-ups slotted into routes already on the road.
Supplier collections, damaged returns, cages and stillages on the same vehicle.
The reality of running a 50+ vehicle building materials fleet on spreadsheets and tribal knowledge.
Configure your fleet across vans, 3.5t, 7.5t, 18t and artic, with capabilities like HIAB, moffett, tail-lift, ADR and height limits. eLogii treats them as hard constraints so a same-day van run for a box of fixings, a pallet of porcelain on a tail-lift, and a craned offload of trunking on a HIAB rigid are each routed to the right vehicle - automatically.
Every stop carries its own rules: construction site windows, craneage slots, merchant goods-in cut-offs, showroom appointments, 2-hour home delivery windows. eLogii's optimization engine solves them together so the plan is deliverable before a vehicle leaves the yard.
Branded customer tracking links, live ETA updates, and configurable email, SMS and push notifications. Photo and signature capture on the driver app, with custom forms for damage, offload location and refusal reasons. The phone stops ringing. Disputes drop. Your sales office stops chasing.
Planned multi-drop routes, same-day and ad-hoc van jobs, supplier backhauls and empties pickups - all in one optimization across multiple depots and multi-day routes. No separate spreadsheet for the urgent runs. Empty miles fall, drops per vehicle climb.
"We needed to have full control of our transport and furthermore we wanted an easy way to be able to review the plan for a day and be sure that things were efficient. That vehicles were travelling out full, but that windows were also going to be hit and the customer always satisfied. This kind of visibility and control is vital for our operations."

eLogii integrates with Samsara for live vehicle telematics, location and driver behavior - so the plan you build is grounded in what your fleet is actually doing. Beyond Samsara, our class-leading REST API and webhooks connect eLogii to any ERP, WMS or e-commerce platform a building materials distributor runs, including Kerridge, Intact, Merlin, SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, Sage and Shopify. No middleware. No bespoke connector project. Live in weeks.
Yes. eLogii is built for 50+ vehicle distribution fleets and is used by building materials distributors including Porcelanosa, Brymec, Stelrad, Wedge, Barwick, Berkshire Tool Supply Group, VJ Technology, Likewise Floors, ATS Building Products and Trimline. Multi-depot, multi-day and overnight routes are core to the platform.
Yes. Configure your fleet across vans, 3.5t, 7.5t, 18t and artic, with weight, volume and dimension constraints, and eLogii's optimization engine plans them together in one run. A same-day van job for a box of fixings, a tail-lift drop of porcelain and a HIAB-craned offload of trunking are each routed to the right vehicle.
Yes. Vehicle Types and Vehicle Capabilities are fully configurable, so HIAB, moffett, tail-lift, curtain-sider, flatbed, ADR and any other capability is treated as a hard constraint when assigning loads. Driver Skills and Schedule-based Driver Skills do the same for HIAB operators, ADR-trained drivers and moffett operators.
Every stop in eLogii carries its own time windows, service durations and constraints. Construction site windows, craneage slots, merchant goods-in cut-offs, showroom appointments and home delivery 2-hour windows are all solved together by the optimization engine before vehicles leave the yard.
Yes. eLogii supports route reoptimization for live routes, so urgent same-day van jobs can be slotted into a driver's run with one click and pushed straight to the driver app, with updated ETAs sent automatically to affected customers.
Yes. The eLogii driver app supports photo capture, electronic signatures, barcode scan, configurable forms for damage and offload notes, checklists, step confirmation and POD PDF generation. Failure reasons, return options and reattempt workflows are fully configurable.
Yes. eLogii's REST API and webhooks connect to any ERP, WMS or e-commerce platform a building materials distributor runs, including Kerridge, Intact, Merlin, SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, Sage and Shopify. No middleware required. We also integrate natively with Samsara for live telematics.
Yes. eLogii supports multi-depot, multi-day and overnight routes, with driver depot and return location setup so the right driver and vehicle start and end at the right site. Routes can be planned across multiple yards in a single optimization.
Most 50+ vehicle building materials distributors are live in weeks, not quarters. Our REST API and webhooks remove the need for middleware or a bespoke connector project, and our team supports data migration, integration and driver onboarding throughout.
