- Author: Artur Lysionok

The transport market has never been more demanding. Pressure for timeliness and costs are causing forwarders to look for new tools to streamline their work. A new product comes to the rescue – Spot Monitoring.

Spot Monitoring allows you to monitor transport on the Trans.eu Platform using GPS systems. The product addresses three key needs of forwarders:

  • it allows monitoring subcontractors in the spot market,
  • it simplifies the process of registering trucks for monitoring just by entering the vehicle registration number,
  • it helps reduce costs by offering the option to pay only for completed transport.

What challenges does Spot Monitoring solve?

1. Lack of transparency and time-consuming transport monitoring

❌ Currently, control over transport requires numerous phone calls, emails, or using multiple monitoring systems. This is a manual and time-consuming process that burdens employees and increases the risk of errors.

✅ With a simple monitoring process based on vehicle registration numbers, you can eliminate the need to use multiple platforms and constant contact with carriers. Data is automatically available in one place, so you can save time and focus on other tasks.

2. Risk of delays and contractual penalties

❌ Contracts between forwarders and shippers include penalties for delays. Without monitoring and precise GPS data, it is impossible to react quickly to problems on the road, leading to delays and additional costs.

✅ The system automatically provides real-time data, such as estimated time of arrival (ETA). This allows you to respond quickly to unforeseen events such as traffic jams or route changes, minimizing the risk of delays and avoiding financial penalties.

3. Increased operating costs

❌ Faced with rising operating costs and the economic crisis, companies are looking for ways to save money. Fixed monitoring fees or unused packages are an unnecessary burden on the budget.

✅ Spot Monitoring offers a micropayment model where you only pay for the monitoring you actually use. In addition, process automation reduces human errors, helping you avoid costs related to fixing them.

Spot Monitoring is the solution to the key challenges of modern forwarders. Process automation, transparency and flexible payment models will allow you to operate more efficiently, reduce costs and build a competitive edge in challenging times.
