FRAI helps heavy haulage operators by bringing routes, permits, asset and trailer configuration and schedules into one operational view, tied to one live reference. Because these elements are interdependent, keeping them on one reference means a change updates the whole movement, working alongside permit systems such as ESDAL with no rip and replace.
The problem
Why is heavy haulage so hard to plan?
A heavy haulage movement is not just a truck and a load. It is a route, a permit, a trailer build and a schedule that all depend on , and they usually live in different systems and people’s heads.
Interdependent planning
Route, permit, trailer build and schedule all affect each other, but they are planned in disconnected tools.
Asset reuse is opaque
Which trailers and modules are built, where they are and whether they can be reused is rarely visible.
Permit and compliance load
Raising and tracking permits and keeping compliance aligned is heavy manual work across portals and email.
How FRAI fixes it
How FRAI helps heavy haulage operators
FRAI connects routes, permits, assets and schedules into one operational view, tied to one live reference. It works alongside permit systems such as ESDAL and your existing systems, so planners see the whole movement at once.
- Plan heavy haulage routing and permits in the same view as the schedule.
- See live asset and trailer configuration, location and future availability.
- Reuse assets across jobs instead of avoidable rebuilds.
- Keep permits, documents and compliance aligned with the live plan.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about for heavy haulage operators with FRAI.
Why do heavy haulage operators need FRAI?
Because routes, permits, trailer builds and schedules all interact, planning them in separate tools is slow and error-prone. FRAI brings them into one operational view on a single live reference, working alongside systems like ESDAL.
How does FRAI handle asset build-up and reuse?
FRAI gives planners a live view of assets, configurations and future availability, so they can reuse trailers and modules on the next job instead of stripping down and rebuilding.
Does FRAI replace ESDAL or our permit systems?
No. FRAI works alongside permit systems such as ESDAL and your existing systems, automating the routing, permit and asset work around them with no rip and replace.
