Running reliable transport logistics at a competitive cost is challenging. Freight is a sensitive topic with many internal stakeholders. Executing successful tenders under these conditions is difficult.
From our time in senior procurement and logistics roles, we know this task all too well.
Many companies are aware that their freight costs are too high. But without the expertise, market access, and resources needed for a transport tender, they are forced to continue accepting high rates.
A dilemma for which we at freightbuyers have developed an effective solution.
We prepare professional tender documents based on shipment data, tariffs, and your specific logistics requirements.
If required, we ensure the stability of incoming offers through our own fuel mechanism and a 12-month price commitment.
We ensure broad market coverage and maximum competition by placing the tender with hundreds of qualified providers. We typically conduct two rounds.
All providers receive qualified feedback after each round to optimise their offers accordingly.
Assess the pros and cons of different award scenarios and define the right provider portfolio for your business. We support you throughout the process.
We conduct the subsequent negotiations together, always with the aim of resolving all outstanding issues and implementing your portfolio in the most cost-effective way possible.
We support the transition to your new portfolio, providing all necessary information. And if a provider has overpromised and fails to deliver, we jointly identify the next-best alternative.
We stay by your side until the savings are firmly realised in your organisation.
Promise.
Get to know us and our software. We'll discuss your logistics requirements and the goals of your tender - with no obligation.
Provide us with information on freight rates and shipment volumes. We analyse your data and show you the cost-saving potential.
If a tender is the right move for you, we provide a tailored fixed-price proposal - based on the actual effort required for your tender.
Results get derailed because key voices are ignored.
Based on our initial conversation and the data you provide, we can accurately assess the effort required for your tender and offer you a fixed-price proposal.
For you, this means full cost certainty — with no surprises.
At the beginning, we need your input to clearly define your requirements. Later, the focus is on reviewing the offers and implementing the new provider portfolio. In total: no more than three days of effort during the tender — plus the time needed for your internal implementation.
We base our assessment on the information gathered during our initial conversation as well as your current freight rates.
We benchmark these against our comprehensive database, giving you a realistic estimate of potential savings — grounded in experience and facts.
For the entire process — from requirements definition to final award — you should plan for approximately three months.
