What do you know about digital carrier or digital network?

Current transportation management has to change in future.
And we do it right now.

The old school way of managing trucks in which the dispatcher has several truck to lead (because he is not able to do more…) will not survive the digital revolution.

The digital revolution has already changed a lot of sectors, but it is note done yet. 
But it will change!

What is Digital Carrier / Digital Transport Network?

The biggest consulting companies (like Gartner, BCG) define digital transport networks as open, digital platforms which thanks to process automation, advanced algorithms and the use of digital tools, connect shippers with carriers, increase the efficiency of the entire transport organization process, from transport orders to invoice settlement.

The process of organizing transport has practically not changed for over a dozen years. The phone and the paper rules… A highly fragmented market with hundreds of thousands of carriers compete for orders. Scattered information, limited transparency of the process, lack of trust, lack of full, clear and transparent information online.

Transport247.pl as a digital platform offers completely different, digital approach.

We are introducing Transport 4.0
From order to payment. In one platform.
We get it all

How digital network works?

The power of the digital transport platform grows with the scale of active users. 

The use of automation and  algorithms is greater for both parties when there is a sufficiently large number of orders entered by shippers and offered to more carriers.

The scale of operation with the use of optimization increases the efficiency of transport management, guarantees greater revenues for carriers and reduces costs for senders.

Advantages of Digital Networks

The margin in transportatin is always hard to predict  and it ranges from a few to a dozen or so%, although carriers think that the agents takes up to 100% of rate.

Quite often there are even 3-5 agents between the shipper and the final carrier. The commission margin is difficult to predict and each time individually negotiated between the parties. Negotiations always by phone and in the traditional way – “how much”?

On top of that complexity grows due to  documentation and settlement of every single order. A resources and  time-consuming costly process. Digital carrier  Transport24 7, we have fully automated it.

Working in traditionall way freight dispatcher, after receiving an order is trying to allocate order to his “trusted” carrier. This decision is very random how to allocate or where to  call.

In the digital transport platform, these decisions are matched by algorithms designed to automate the process of selecting a carrier for a given order.

In the old scholl way, the dispatcher allocates “piece by piece” available orders to carriers who are still free to work. Carrier is limited to average monthly reveneu simillar to other carriers managed by dispatcher. Working with digital platform carrier can choose shipments with higher margin and increase scale.

The digital transport network, thanks to its large range, allows you to quickly connect available orders to hundreds of carriers at the same time. Algorithms allow you to create hundreds of connections for orders and confirm them automatically.

Thanks to this, less work and commitment to the allocation and selection of the carrier is needed, better selected orders result in higher revenues for the carrier.

Ther is about 35,000 on the Polish transport market. transport companies with approximately 450 thousand of trucks. Each company tries to cooperate with several agents to achieve the highest possible income and efficiency.

Due to the fragmentation of information, carriers see only a small piece of the shipments available on the market. The situation is also made more difficult by the fact that in many cases shippers want to limitate the number of carriers they cooperate with, limiting the resources and time necessary to manage transport. Transport24/7 changes the market thanks to the wide access to current orders.

In the traditional model, the dispatcher manually distributes the shipments  between the carriers he manages. The carrier is limited by his decisions.

Cooperation with Transport24/7 gives full and equal access to available orders. The carrier can choose the best order for himself. This makes the entire digital transport network more efficient for the carrier and shipper.

What carriers says?

Working on bidding platform we never knew who we were working with and whether we would get our money on time ... Now all these issues are solved. I fully recommend to test Transport24/7.pl

We really love the flexibility of order selection. So far we had to relay on dispatcher, now we choose what we want to do
