The main advantage for freight forwarders is the data transparency from the booking to the collection of the loading unit at the destination terminal, including optimized forecast data (estimated time of train arrival and estimated time of pick-up) in the event of irregularities in the transport process. |
Many beneficial advantages can be achieved also for terminals. The planning of the terminal slots is improved by the timely knowledge of the planned shipment volume of operators and freight forwarders. Truck entrances and processes in the terminal can be optimized by achieving anticipatory information. |
Railway undertakings can schedule locomotives and drivers more flexibly if they are aware that trains to be taken over will arrive late at the transfer point. Join the KV4.0 Data Hub |
