Transport & Logistics Software in Dammam

From the port to Riyadh and the GCC — shipments, fleet and billing in one system

🌐 We're based in New Cairo, Egypt, and serve companies in Dammam remotely: online meetings, remote implementation, training and support.

Dammam is the Kingdom’s gateway to the Arabian Gulf: King Abdulaziz Port is one of the largest Gulf ports, rail links it to Riyadh, the King Fahd Causeway connects it to Bahrain, and highways run to Kuwait, Qatar and the UAE. Transport companies here manage shipments that cross borders, currencies and paperwork, with a fleet whose licences and insurance must stay valid.

Odoo brings operations, fleet, documents and billing into one system, so you know the cost of every trip and the profitability of every customer and route.

Shipments and trips

What a Dammam transport company runs every day:

Transport orders per customer with route, load and agreed rate
Truck and driver assignment with trip status tracking
Trip costs: fuel, crossing fees, road expenses and driver allowances
Profitability per trip, route and customer through analytic accounting

Fleet and documents

Odoo Fleet keeps each vehicle’s contracts, insurance, maintenance and fuel consumption, while HR keeps each driver’s licence, residency and medical insurance with alerts before expiry — so no truck is stopped at a border over an expired document.

Billing across the GCC

Cross-border transport means several currencies and entities:

Invoices in SAR, Bahraini or Kuwaiti dinars or UAE dirhams, with exchange differences
A subsidiary in another GCC country in the same system with inter-company entries
ZATCA-compliant e-invoicing for Saudi invoices

Warehousing

If you offer storage alongside transport, Odoo runs barcode warehouses, multi-client stock and storage and handling billing from actual movements, with outbound shipments linked to trips.
