Barilla Group achieves 99% carrier allocation success
Early adoption reaps rewards for family-favourite Italian food manufacturer
When Barilla Group discovered it could be one of the first Transporeon customers to implement Rate Management, the team simply couldn’t say no.
Tedious and high-risk manual transport allocation was costing this household favourite far too much. Find out how we changed the outlook for Barilla with this transformative tech.
Why Rate Management?
When you’re working with a diverse set of carriers and roads to maximise market potential, planners’ lives are simplified with a tool like Rate Management. Using different logic to allocate each transport to the right carrier is time consuming and the chances of making a mistake are high. Cutting the time it takes to communicate with carriers and reducing the risk of error are solved simultaneously with Rate Management.
The solution
Since completing implementation, Barilla achieves 99% carrier allocation success, and its people are freed up to focus on higher-value analytical tasks instead.
Whether it's opening a jar of pasta sauce for an easy dinner or locating carriers for tomorrow’s transports, saving time always feels great.
