Transportation procurement is a key tool in leveraging a competitive advantage from your supply chain. Alpega’s strategic sourcing and spot bidding solution, TenderEasy, maximizes your buying power and reduces time spent finding the best carrier – and time spent in Excel.
Freight procurement professionals are constantly being asked to shave anywhere from 3-5% off their annual freight spend. We can help you find it year over year. TenderEasy clearly shows shippers opportunities at hand to execute on savings. Whether it’s from running improved RFQs to obtaining spot freight rates to bringing new capacity and carriers into the mix of service providers, TenderEasy presents a menu of opportunities to find the targeted savings and provides the data needed to plan and deliver improvements over time.
Go beyond the immediate ROI of improving tactical spot bidding. TenderEasy supports the complete contracting process with RFQ, repetitive bidding and multiple scenario analysis. For larger projects and strategic freight procurement, run exercises such as simple lane development all the way to complete transportation network events.
If a solution isn’t convenient for carriers, or if the RFQ isn’t reaching the proper contact, they won’t respond. TenderEasy’s ability to attract the right bidder and garner a high response rate is key to its success as a collaborative procurement tool between shippers and carriers. Not only does it encourage carriers to make bids and improvements during the RFQ process, but the tool also saves them significant and valuable time.
Eliminate all that manual time spent in Excel spreadsheets. Instead, use the time saved to work with your chosen carrier(s) on mutually beneficial opportunities. With Alpega's freight procurement tool, TenderEasy, in just a few clicks you can:
Setup your tender across land, air or sea
Benchmark current market rates via easy integration with market data providers
Quickly identify the best partner for your business
Alpega solutions support the ability to ask select carriers to bid for ad-hoc transportation with little notice – or ask all your vetted carriers for spot freight rates, essentially creating your own private bid board. Or, request carriers for a set price for getting goods from A to B, while complying with internal agreements and giving you 100% visibility.
Conduct a complete audit and reconciliation of your freight invoices, and compare the planned and actual cost of an invoice and get notifications when something doesn’t add up. This typically leads to an immediate 2% – 5% cost saving on total freight turnover.
“In the past, we used to send spreadsheets around which then had to be collected manually. It was error prone, and now with the help of Alpega this whole process is streamlined.” – Peter Stockhammer, Sr Manager, Logistics Service Provider Strategy & Management, PUMA
