Trimble announces the launch of Transporeon Visibility in North America. Carriers and shippers in the road, ocean and air transportation sectors can access the locations of their shipments and vehicles in real time in addition to having accurate Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) information created with powerful AI capabilities.
"We're excited to introduce our powerful visibility solution, which seamlessly integrates with Trimble Transportation Management Software (TMS) applications and other visibility solutions," says Ed Moran, managing director, Americas, Transporeon. "In today's challenging landscape, the transportation sector needs advanced digital tools to overcome supply chain obstacles and maintain a competitive edge. We believe Transporeon Visibility, combined with our extensive network, will be a valuable asset for shippers, carriers and brokers across North America."
Key Takeaways:
- Transporeon Visibility provides a solution to address these constraints. It is easily deployed, with a simple onboarding process for carriers. It fits both new users and existing Trimble users, as it integrates seamlessly with Trimble TMS products such as TMW.Suite and Innovative, and other integrations such as TruckMate will be available before the end of the year.
- Via an at-a-glance, customizable user interface or data feed, Transporeon Visibility gives operators and relevant stakeholders the exact location of the vehicles or individual truckload, air or ocean shipments in real time. Delays caused by faulty addresses or vehicle license plates become a distant memory.
- Reliable ETA predictability means planners and operators can stay ahead of disruptions and proactively work on managing the exceptions. Cost savings include reduced demurrage and detention penalties and optimized deployment of expensive equipment and driver resources.
- Transporeon Visibility helps to ensure data security as data is only shared when consent is given, a vehicle is allocated, and the data sharing criteria are met.
- With confident expectations of truck and driver arrival and waiting times, extra runs and loads can be scheduled when appropriate because the truck and driver spend less time idle.
- Transporeon Visibility facilitates the expansion of carrier networks for shippers and provides the ability to view visibility performance of those carriers. Brokers and carriers enjoy more efficient management of subcontractor performance.
