2. CHALLENGES
Too much time spent on telephone calls with carriers
Wanted to reduce the number of transactions per transport order
Complex collaboration as the carrier pool includes a wide variety of companies
Essential to achieve integration and data exchange with the existing ERP system
SOLUTION
Intersig selected one of the Transporeon Transport Assignment modules: no-touch orders
Freight orders can be sent automatically to carriers, selected according to predefined criteria
Planners can make better choices when awarding each contract, based on the best combination of price and reliability
Intersig retains control, deciding when to allow processes to run via the Transporeon platform
All parties are able to access relevant transport-related information
The solution integrates proof of delivery, issue of waybills, a self-billing solution, and the existing ERP system
RESULTS
LESS ADMIN WORK
The solution has reduced admin
work. With future expansion, this
benefit will be shared with all parts
of the Intersig organization.
PROCESS AUTOMATION
Achieves end-to-end automation,
from posting an order to confirming
the carrier. If the selected carrier
refuses the transport, another is
automatically selected.
EASIER COLLABORATION
Ensures more efficient
communication and easier
collaboration with the established
carrier pool. Everyone shares the
same information.
FLEXIBLE & EXPANDABLE
Fully flexible configuration with a
modular design that allows for
future extension of digital
capabilities.
