BUSINESS LOGISTICS
TRANSPORT
Old-fashioned purchase of transport services has long ceased to yield desired results. To put you in a position to address the demands of global as well as regional markets, we use finely-honed instruments to customise your transport operations so as to keep you a step ahead of the markets – achieve transparent structures in overland as well as sea freight and adopt innovative concepts for innovative intermodal transport and rail-based logistics.
“If there is any one secret of success, it lies in the ability to get the other person's point of view and see things from that person's angle as well as from your own.“ Henry Ford I
A definite advantage then, to not only know methods but also markets. The idea here is to move away from just dictating prices and instead customise services for different market segments. But this approach also requires detailed knowledge of the different market segments that you want to address. Professional Total Cost of Ownership-analysis can reveal, for instance, the cost function of a vendor. Benchmarking of rates and prices yields valuable insights on positioning your company favourably on the market and adopting best practices to purchase logistics services.

We place great importance on the proper project and purchase management because we believe that it is the foundation for a professional purchase process: has the awarding process been transparently communicated? Are requirements for deliverables clearly specified? Is the contract sufficiently precise? In other words: are purchase operations professionally managed?
Our optimisation software can be used in the case of complex tenders to arrive at a decision to award vendor contracts without delay and taking into account of all constraints, e. g. by simultaneously assessing price, service and capacity. Efficient data management and an Internet-enabled communication platform provide a transparent view of transport streams, freight rates and service requirements – and ensure that you stay ahead of business.
