Non Placement of the vehicle against the contract? Arrange a replacement vehicle at the last minute with ease

What if something like this happens to your customer? 

Your team is ready with all the work done on your part to deliver the goods. But the transporter cannot place a vehicle against the contract (just like the delivery agent not being available). Wouldn’t your customer be frustrated as well?

But in a manual vehicle sourcing process, a lot has to be done to find another transporter. The team has to get ready with another transporter in almost no time to ensure there isn’t a delivery failure.

The above case might happen with you regularly wherein you are left in a spot of panic and an unending loop of work of sourcing out the replacement vehicle immediately. Let us ponder a few challenges one might face while doing the whole process manually.

Challenges

Case 1: Sourcing the replacement vehicle from another contracted transporter

Going back to your excel sheet to find details of the other contracted transporters, reaching out to them via phone or email for vehicle availability & waiting for the confirmation – all the while, you are stressed about the time crunch.

Best case scenario – you get confirmed vehicle placement from one of the contracted transporters after coordination and manual follow-ups. 

But the next day, you must go back to your excel sheet, update the changes, and reset your calculations to ensure budget adherence.

Case 2: Sourcing the replacement vehicle from the spot market

Sourcing vehicles manually from the spot market results in delayed reallocation. You have to manually contact 6-7 different transporters from the spot market to follow up with them, and the availability of vehicles is always a question, so on-time vehicle placement & delivery becomes a 50-50 chance.

Adding to the mix – is a need for real-time data visibility.

Another essential aspect that can cause trouble is that there needs to be real-time visibility of the vehicle placement or any other logistic process, for that matter, when done manually. 

But if you had this data –

• It would help you & your logistics team to track the performance of the transporter
• Help you spot bottlenecks in the entire order-dispatch cycle to know where the delay occurs. 

From strategizing new lanes to giving you data analysis to adding new transporters, it is crucial to keep a tab on everything. You can reach your desired KPIs & contribute positively to your company.
