Würth Logistics - Freight Check
Saving transport costs - we uncover the potential
At some point, all managers will surely ask themselves the questions: How can I save costs? And is there still any untapped optimization potential within my processes? When it comes to the processes in the field of transport logistics – no matter whether procurement or distribution – our transport logistics specialists have the right answers with the freight check.
So how does this work?
1. Briefing
The first thing we do is discuss your requirements, your challenges, and your objectives. We check what data you have available and in what form. We then chat with you on site about your day-to-day experiences. This helps us gain a better understanding of your specific situation.
2. Analysis & solution approaches
Following the initial briefing, we get to work. We check ratios, quantities, freight invoices, goods flows, agreements with service providers and – where present – also process descriptions. We shine a light on all neuralgic points within the scope of transport handling here, including: order processes, information technology, delivery conditions, terms, freight tenders, and invoicing modalities, as well as customs processing.
Once this is complete, we determine the most suitable carriers for your consignments from our network of service providers. Our results show you just how much you stand to benefit by using a specific service provider. Which carrier is the most affordable? Which carrier can get your goods delivered more quickly thanks to shorter shipping times? Which carrier offers additional services? The ultimate decision as to which and how many service providers you use is obviously down to you. No matter what you decide, you also have just one contact for all shipments thanks to our Online Transport Management Platform. Many process steps can also be automated via our Online Transport Management Platform. This reduces the day-to-day time and effort required considerably.
3. Implementation
If you choose to work with us to achieve the savings and improvements, we will plan the implementation with you in detail. We will then discuss where preliminary work is required, which processes are to be switched over and when, as well as staff training. We are obviously also happy to implement any «quick wins» immediately.
Conditions
We offer our freight check as a free-of-charge service to you. Our only condition here is that you commission your shipment via our system if you choose to implement the project with us. Only together with the total transport volume of the Würth Group can we negotiate the most favorable conditions for our customers and manage the processes efficiently using our Transport Management Platform.
