AboutADMCS
Why trust us
Group structure
Thanks to innovative technologies like blockchain, IoT and IA, the group is pioneering the first end-to-end container management software platform and the world’s first eco-terminals, accessible via a cryptocurrency.
In order to function in an optimal way and to ensure total neutrality, the activities of the ADMCS group are distributed under the structures AMCS Eco-terminals and DMCS Investments Switzerland.
Project history
Nicolas SARRUT grew up in the family company run by his grandfather and was able to observe the developments in the maritime industry and new technologies. But he also saw the damaging environmental impacts of transport and logistics.
Details: 90% of what is consumed in the world (from raw materials to waste, including semi-finished and finished products) is transported by container. Which makes the container the biggest driver of globalisation.
There have been some changes at local level in the multimodal field. But they remain limited and concern only one or two actors in the supply chain. The solutions offered to date only manage one link in the chain and none provide a comprehensive answer to the issues. They are implemented by players who are already stakeholders in the supply chain, which limits them to internal use in one company and prevents them being duplicated and used by competitors.
It was to overcome this situation that he founded ADMCS and is now developing an innovative project to construct eco-terminals and a container management software solution based on advanced technologies like IA, Deep Learning, IoT, blockchain and cryptocurrency.
Nicolas’s aim is to reduce the carbon footprint of the multimodal transport industry.
But although the environmental impact is the fundamental issue, the economic repercussions are no less far-reaching. Remember that it is when a container is on the move that it is creating the most value and it is at its most environmentally responsible.
Multimodal Supply Chain Vision
The container transport market
The container is today the indispensable tool in world trade. Port container traffic passed the 800 million TEU (twenty-foot equivalent unit) mark in 2019.

Goods transported in 2019
With the intensification of global traffic, port facilities are becoming more and more congested. Which is posing a real problem for port facilities all over the world, from the biggest maritime hubs to the smallest. This leads to a great deal of time being wasted, pointless logistics flows and therefore also unnecessary additional costs.
Multimodal transport is facing difficulties for which ADMCS can provide solutions thanks to its SIRIUS software controlled by DMCS Software and AMCS eco-terminals.
Ageing supply chain management systems
No automation of the tools
No overall control system
Congested ports
Slowing down of flows
Longer delivery times
Extra costs
Environmentally unfriendly transport
Carbon footprint of container transport
Increasing carbon taxes in all countries
Environmentally unfriendly terminals
Pollution Visual | Noise | Olfactory | Water/Air (micro-particles) | Lorry traffic
Electricity consumption
Among other things, ADMCS solution makes
it possible to :
- Transport every container in the shortest time possible through the entire multimodal supply chain whilst keeping it constantly moving. It is when a container is on the move that it creates the most value. This solution also makes it possible to limit unladen journeys.
- Choose the least polluting route thanks to its overview of all the routes and containers, and to prove that the carbon footprint is being reduced, an advantage to operators in the multimodal supply chain (reduced carbon tax). In addition, ADMCS is becoming the expert in the installation of non-polluting, positive energy balance eco-terminals.

ADMCS
Investments France
ADMCS is a French-Swiss group that was founded in 2020 to provide answers to the economic and environmental challenges facing the global container market, estimated to be worth 12 billion dollars.
ADMCS
and the environment
Our objective is to limit the impact of multimodal transport and its eco-terminals on the environment as far as possible.
DMCS
Investments Switzerland
The SIRIUS software platform operated by DMCS will be deployed first of all on these dry eco‐terminals to prove the concept, before it goes into production on a larger scale.
