Methodology

Transportation and freight costs typically represent a substantial portion of a company’s operating expense. Comparing and selecting the most cost-efficient transportation services can be a time-consuming and difficult exercise, particularly with rapidly changing market conditions and often complex tender structures.

TransOpt has developed a proprietary 4-step POWR methodology, that takes away the burden of managing and optimizing the optimal purchase of transportation services. We help companies by defining their exact transportation needs based on their average traffic profile, develop a tender structure based on those needs, and manage the bidding process to secure the optimal logistics solution.

The POWR methodology consist of four steps:

Profile: We develop a detailed transportation profile of your typical shipping usage and needs, based on your past patterns and routes.

Optimize: Utilizing proprietary software, we design an optimal tender structure based on your profile, and secure new tender offers from major providers appropriate for your needs.

Weigh: Competitive offers can be easily weighed against each other once in the TransOpt POWR format, highlighting optimal solutions by breaking the code on hidden shipping costs and charges

Rationalize: You choose the logistics companies that make the most economic sense for you, based on a rationalization of competing offers.

This optimization process ensures that there are no hidden costs, fees or add-ons to any selected transportation program. Competitive rates and services are easy to identify and compare.  We find you the best solutions for your transportation needs -- you choose the companies you wish to use -- and save money.
