ESDAL integration
FRAI works alongside ESDAL for heavy haulage routing and permits
FRAI connects to permit systems such as ESDAL so heavy haulage routing and permits stay aligned with assets and schedules on one live reference, without replacing the permit system itself.

What the ESDAL integration does
FRAI works alongside permit systems such as ESDAL. It keeps heavy haulage routing and permits aligned with the asset plan and schedule on one live reference, so route and permit context never drifts apart.
- Keep route, permit, trailer build and schedule on one live reference.
- Track permit status against the actual movement, not a separate portal.
- Connect heavy haulage routing and permits to asset and trailer tracking.
- Reduce manual handoffs between routing, permits and planning.

What it fixes
Permit admin across portals and email is slow, and status is hard to see against the movement. FRAI connects that work to your operational view.
Permit status hard to see
Status lives in a portal, separate from the movement it relates to.
Manual handoffs
Route, permit and asset plans are reconciled by hand across tools.
Drift on changes
A route change means re-checking the permit and asset plan manually.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about the ESDAL integration with FRAI.
Does FRAI replace ESDAL?
No. FRAI works alongside permit systems such as ESDAL. Route and permit context stays aligned with assets and schedules on one live reference; the permit system itself keeps running, with no rip and replace.
How does FRAI connect heavy haulage routing to ESDAL?
When a route is planned on the live reference, permit work in ESDAL is tracked against that movement. Permit status is visible alongside the route and asset plan so planners see everything in one view.
What happens when a route or movement detail changes?
FRAI flags the impact on the route and permit, so the planner sees what needs revisiting without manually reconciling portals, email and spreadsheets.
Can permit status be seen against the actual movement?
Yes. Permit status is tracked on the shipment live reference, not in a separate portal, so operators know where every permit stands without chasing threads or re-checking by hand.
