Real-time visibility & Carrier connectivity
Seamless automated communication and visibility is key to navigate supply chain disruptions and challenges
Data exchange with carriers is a crucial part of the transport management process. Under pressure from rapidly changing market conditions, limited capacity and strong growth of e-commerce activities, flexibility and speed are essential to collaborate efficiently with different carriers. With the seamless automated communication solution digital carrier connectivity, shippers can accelerate the onboarding process for carriers and dramatically shorten their time-to-value. And it can seamlessly be connected to your SAP system or any other ERP/WMS/TMS.
