Managing multiple delivery points and specific vehicle requirements for various buyers, especially for ODC consignments, made freight rate negotiations critical and complex.
Relying on manual methods like emails and phone calls limited transporter outreach to just three, causing delays in vehicle placements and increased freight costs.
The traditional approach led to transporters feeling uncertain about negotiation fairness. Without clear competitive quotes, they often overcharged, causing frustration and reduced future participation.
Allocating one resource to manual negotiations, consuming 5-6 hours daily, reduced productivity. Additionally, inadequate record-keeping for finalized freight hindered effective monitoring.
With SuperProcure’s Freight Sourcing solution, they gained access to a comprehensive platform that streamlines freight negotiation processes. The solution optimized vehicle selection and lot allotment, ensuring timely deliveries and competitive freight rates.
