If you’re still relying on phone calls, email, outdated systems and load boards to find capacity on the spot market, stop!

 

It’s time to embrace a better, more efficient way to manage your spot loads, trusted by industry leaders like IKEA, Coca-Cola, Pfeifer, ArcelorMittal and Linde.

Our Agile Assignment Strategy series continues with episode 2, in which we focus on one of the most misunderstood and underutilised elements of the agile assignment strategy: the spot market.

Learn directly from our experts how to leverage the spot market to build a highly scalable, agile transport assignment strategy that empowers you to adapt quickly to changing market conditions. We’ll show you - in which scenarios and for which lanes - you should leverage the spot market in order to increase efficiency and maximise savings.
