Efret's Transport Management System (TMS)
Efret’s TMS marks a significant step forward in European freight transport - particularly for customers seeking enhanced control, transparency, and sustainability throughout their supply chains.
1. Seamless integration with Transporeon: Enhanced connectivity and visibility
At the core of our TMS system is its robust integration with the Transporeon platform - a widely trusted digital logistics ecosystem used by leading shippers and carriers. This connection allows Efret to align fully with customer systems for:
- Real-time vehicle tracking
- Centralised document sharing (e.g. eCMRs, invoices)
- Automated load tendering and confirmation
- Instant status updates via a shared platform
This reduces fragmented communication, minimises email traffic, and gives customers a single point of reference for every shipment.
Efret have been awarded the coveted ‘Expert tier’ in Transporeon's Carrier Loyalty Program which is a true benchmark of quality and performance.
2. Real-time GPS tracking and predictive Insights
Developed in house, our TMS provides end-to-end shipment visibility, enabling customers to track the live location of their freight through integrated GPS functionality. The system also incorporates and responds to real-time variables such as:
- Traffic congestion
- Weather conditions
- Vehicle availability and route performance
By forecasting delivery times more accurately and identifying potential disruptions before they occur, our TMS helps customers better manage their European transportation flows.
3. Sustainability through intelligent load matching
One of the standout features is its intelligent use of predictive and historical data to reduce empty running and optimise vehicle utilisation. This is not only cost-effective for customers but also contributes to their sustainability goals.
For clients with decarbonisation targets, our TMS supports:
- Lower CO2 emissions via greener route planning
- Modal shift options, combining road with rail or sea where viable
- Accurate environmental reporting to support ESG compliance
4. Faster documentation and billing workflows
Our TMS streamlines post-shipment administration by automatically capturing:
- Electronic Proof of Delivery (eCMR)
- Timestamped collection and delivery data
- Auto-generated invoices
All documentation is accessible via our dedicated customer portal or through Transporeon connectivity, significantly reducing paperwork and accelerating payment cycles.
5. Data-driven logistics strategy
With built-in performance dashboards, our TMS provides Efret’s clients with meaningful insights to support continuous improvement, including:
- On-time delivery performance
- Carrier service metrics
- Emissions tracking
- Load planning efficiency
This data-led approach enables better planning, enhanced accountability, and long-term cost savings.
