How We Digitized Freight Transportation for a Netherlands-Based Logistics Company
How We Digitized Freight Transportation for a Netherlands-Based Logistics Company
Overview
A Netherlands-based supply chain and logistics company specializing in freight transportation approached us to develop a digital platform to streamline operations across Europe.
The client connects shippers with carriers to negotiate cost-effective transportation while ensuring timely and safe delivery. We developed a scalable digital freight platform for web and app, automating their manual processes and legacy infrastructure. The solution offers seamless end-to-end logistics management, enabling real-time tracking and two-way communication between shippers and carriers.
Challenges We Addressed
When the client approached us, the company was facing a lot of issues that are inherent in a legacy infrastructure fraught with fragmented manual processes, such as:
- Gaps in logistical operations and communication
- Inefficiencies in cost and time management
- Shipment delays
- Fluctuating freight transportation costs
- Lack of transparency and traceability in the shipping process
Our Approach
We started by gathering in-depth project requirements through workshops with the client, followed by creating UI mock-ups and wireframes for feedback. Our development team assessed the technology stack, designed the infrastructure, and incorporated necessary features for shippers, carriers, dispatchers, drivers, and admins. We ensured that the platform would support multilingual communication, real-time tracking, a robust payment system, and a user-friendly interface across both web and mobile platforms.
