Transporeon Announces Two New Platform Solutions

Transporeon, a Trimble company, announces two new platform solutions: Yard Arrival Monitor and Freight Audit SelfService. They leverage the power of connected data to address significant challenges faced by shippers and carriers in yard management and freight billing.

(Ulm) “Increasing efficiency and reducing manual labor and costs are currently the top priorities for the transportation logistics industry,” says Jonah McIntire, Chief Platform Officer at Transporeon. “Our new platform solutions harness the power of connected data to eliminate bottlenecks, enhance transparency, optimize collaboration, reduce administrative burdens, and provide actionable insights from real-time data. In summary, each solution offers significant, measurable business advantages.”

Synchronization of Trucks and Yards

The lack of real-time information about truck arrivals, delays, and status leads to bottlenecks that disrupt the supply chain. Yard Arrival Monitor, part of Transporeon’s Real-Time Yard Management Suite, utilizes current ETAs and connected data to seamlessly coordinate the arrival and departure of traffic in the yard. For dynamic planning, the solution leverages the power of real-time data with intelligent automation to adjust time slots for drivers, effectively managing resources, delays, and bottlenecks. This brings significant operational, economic, and ecological benefits for dock and yard management. The solution integrates seamlessly with Transporeon’s time slot management solution at industrial and commercial sites.

Easy Management of Freight Invoices

In the logistics industry, it is still common to process and review invoices using spreadsheets and emails. Freight Audit SelfService is a new, user-friendly solution for freight billing and invoicing. Its unified interface allows for the standardization of processes, prevents overpayments, and provides real-time insights into reserves, billing performance, and much more while simultaneously reducing manual labor.

For carriers, it becomes easier to comply with the processes set by shippers while maintaining control over the invoicing process. The invoice amount is agreed upon before creation, and the carrier decides when to bill for the transports – all while adhering to the shippers’ requirements. Additionally, all parties receive immediate updates. This gives carriers peace of mind.
