- The service offering with its true “end-to-end” solutions is a logical complement to Transporeon’s existing portfolio of market intelligence, freight purchasing, freight benchmarking and tendering, transport allocation and processing, time slot booking, shipment tracking and end-to-end supply chain visibility.
- The competitor couldn’t match Transporeon’s 55,000 carriers.” “The switch to automated time slot management was incredibly easy.” “We gave the time slot management product a go but it felt unfriendly and not at all intuitive.” “Leaving our SAP environment wasn’t an option, so we only looked for tight solution integration.

To create and deliver just-in-time, online process control, many manufacturers rely on digitization and automation. At transport logistic 2019 in Munich, Germany (June 4-7), the Transporeon Group will present its latest contributions to the overall data-driven supply chain and give numerous technical lectures on its exhibition stand (in Hall A3, 101/202). Solutions will include data-optimized bid allocation and transport assignment as well as end-to-end tracking of full and partial truck loads. In addition, the Group’s market intelligence organization TIM CONSULT will present a completely revised online service for the evaluation of price and capacity developments in European road transportation.
Data-based decisions replace gut instinct
Dispatchers at shipping companies decide daily whether to place transport orders at fixed rates or conduct bids at short notice on the so-called spot market. Until recently, this decision was based on their prior experience and gut feeling. But now Transporeon is enabling data-based decision making with a range of new solutions. Its innovative Offer Retrospect and Offer Prediction products use artificial intelligence to provide valuable information on whether rate-based or spot-market allocation is likely to be more successful and more economical. These tools can also be used to forecast capacity availability for planned transports.
Additionally, shippers can use another of Transporeon’s new data-driven products, the Connecting Load Agent, to instantly compare loading dates with any unloading times and locations already agreed with carriers. This makes it easy for shippers to find out how many carriers are unloading in the vicinity of an upcoming load and therefore are likely to be 2 searching for a connecting load. If the number is large, the shipper may decide to offer the upcoming load on the spot market, as co-located carriers offer lower rates in order to avoid an empty run. This also benefits the environment as fewer empty journeys means lower carbon dioxide emissions.

Integrated real-time tracking
Another key Transporeon topic at transport logistic 2019 will be the tracking of full truck loads (FTL) and partial truck loads (LTL). Together with real-time visibility provider Sixfold, Transporeon has recently launched a new, integrated, and easily implemented solution. Sixfold connects carriers’ truck fleets primarily via the telematics systems they use. As these systems are now seamlessly integrated in the Transporeon platform, shippers can track deliveries in real time based on the estimated time of arrival (ETA). This means that shippers need only log into one platform – Transporeon – to manage transport bids, transport assignment, time slot management, and now also delivery tracking. This solution is unique in the European market.
