Automated, transparent, and collaborative: How Simplified Operations supports shippers in planning transports with all their stakeholders

GENERATE CONSIGNMENT NOTES automatically

Generate pre filled rail freight consignment notes with any transport partner.

What are the main challenges shippers face when the consignment note is not digitized?
Manual creation and handling that are time-consuming and prone to errors.
Lack of centralization to manage consignment notes across all railway companies efficiently.
Limited visibility leading to potential delays or miscommunications.
Data duplication increases the likelihood of errors and inefficiencies.
Productivity issues due to the fragmented nature of the process and the time required for coordination.
Benefits from automatically generated consignment notes:
Automation of processes with the creation, distribution, and monitoring of consignment notes.
Single interface to manage consignment notes across all rail companies.
Real-Time Visibility enables real-time tracking and monitoring of consignment note statuses.
Reduced errors and redundancies by eliminating the need for manual data entry and ensuring data consistency across stakeholders.
Improved collaboration between different stakeholders involved in the transport process.
