Digital forwarding🌐What’s behind it?
Digitization has become one of the dominant topics in many areas of our everyday lives. The lack of digitization in German public authorities is very often reported, but what is the situation in our transport industry? This should not go unmentioned, because there is still a lot of potential for development there as well. In the meantime, people often talk about digital freight forwarding, but what exactly is behind this nice-sounding term?
The main objective of a digital freight forwarding company is to make all processes more efficient. This is done by first digitizing all communication processes and then automating as many processes as possible. This starts with the inquiry, which provides the customer with full transparency and a real-time comparison of prices, and continues through to digital invoicing and payment within the platform provided. There is also the option of connecting the company’s own platform with the customer’s software in order to automate yet another interface and increase customer loyalty.
The customer benefits from cost and time advantages, simpler processing, and increased planning reliability for his supply chains. On the other hand, the digital forwarder also benefits, because his employees save valuable working time and can be deployed for more important tasks.
Will customers who are not tech-savvy fall by the wayside?
Although the number of digital freight forwarders and platforms is steadily increasing, the classic freight forwarder is far from being obsolete. The demand for individualized services and professional advice is still high, which is why traditional business models can also solve complex customer problems thanks to their long experience.
