Logistics Integrations

Integration solutions for logistics and transport operations

W3 Applications provides integration solutions for logistics and transport businesses that need reliable data flow between MaxOptra and their wider business systems.

Using our packaged integration platform, W3 Connect, we help logistics companies automate data exchange, reduce manual processing, and improve operational visibility across planning, execution, and back-office systems.

W3 Connect – Integration platform for MaxOptra

W3 Connect is a managed integration platform that connects MaxOptra with a wide range of third-party systems and APIs.

It is built from extensive real-world MaxOptra integration projects and designed to handle the majority of logistics integration requirements using a modular, plug-in based architecture.

Where requirements extend beyond the standard package, we can develop additional plugins or bespoke integrations.

Typical logistics use cases

W3 Connect is commonly used to:

  • Sync orders, jobs, and consignments into MaxOptra

  • Push route plans, statuses, and proof of delivery back to other systems

  • Exchange customer, site, and product data

  • Automate updates between planning, warehouse, and finance systems

  • Support real-time or near-real-time data flows

What W3 Connect handles

W3 Connect operates as a secure middleware layer between MaxOptra and your other systems, providing:

  • Data synchronisation

  • Scheduling and automation

  • Error handling and logging

  • Webhooks and real-time updates

  • Multi-client access and control

All with full visibility and operational control.
