Sourcing vehicles manually from a pool of 300+ transporters through phone calls & emails, and rate negotiations consumed over 2 hours daily. This resulted in extended vehicle finalization times and higher freight costs.
Manually managing transporter contracts, negotiating rates via email, and finalizing them for specific lanes took over 8-10 days with no proper record-keeping & increased freight costs. It was difficult to maintain SOB adherence, audit logs, carrier performance, and SLA monitoring.
The management lacked ground-level insights like transporter contracts, vehicle placements, finalization rates, and time spent, especially across 42 sites. Compiling and standardizing data from multiple sources for analysis was time-consuming.
Within the FMEG sector, transporting valuable goods poses significant risks, including theft and misuse. Without digital shipment visibility, manually tracking 5,000+ trips per month was a challenging task involving numerous calls to transporters and drivers.
Implementing SP Freight Sourcing, a reverse-auction-based digital freight sourcing solution, reduced vehicle sourcing time to just 15 minutes, saving 88% of the time to source vehicles, significantly lesser manual effort, and cutting freight costs by 5-7%.
The logistics team achieved a 60% reduction in contract indent finalization time and lowered costs by allocating contracts to vendors with the lowest quotes, all while ensuring compliance and maintaining a comprehensive audit trail. Data-driven reports enhanced decision-making by monitoring carrier performance and SLA compliance.
