Key Results

Key Challenges:

Delayed Vehicle Placement

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.

Increased 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.

Limited Ground-Level Visibility

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.

Inadequate Shipment Visibility

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.
