Road Customer Visibility puts you back in the driver's seat. Whether your products are time-critical, high-value, or temperature-sensitive, our Road Customer Visibility solutions enhance your supply chain efficiency and help you achieve superior customer satisfaction. Our solution allows you to automate workflows, immediately manage deviations, reduce product waste, and keep your stakeholders informed from pick-up to delivery.
Whether you opt for Advanced Visibility at the truck level or Max Visibility at item level, our cloud-based Road Customer Visibility dashboard is your single source of truth. It seamlessly integrates thousands of data points from telematics, geofencing, cutting-edge sensors, and our Transport Management systems—no complex system integration is required.
Advanced Visibility: real-time insights at truck level
Advanced Visibility provides you full visibility on the precise location of the truck carrying your goods, even while crossing borders.
With automated status updates and interactive location and temperature graphs, you never lose sight of your shipment and its integrity.
Customisable real-time alerts tailored to your business needs boost operational efficiency. These proactive notifications keep you and your customers on the pulse. This enables swift action in case of unexpected events, saving costs and safeguarding production lines.
Max Visibility: item-level visibility with smart labels and predictive insights
At Kuehne+Nagel, we invest in cutting-edge solutions. By partnering with Chorus, a company from Alphabet's moonshot factory, we bring you trailblazing sensor technology designed to elevate your supply chain efficiency with unparalleled shipment visibility.
Powered by machine learning and AI, our system provides you and your consignees with dynamic predictive ETAs at item level. Combined with smart alerts that know when (and when not) to send updates, you and your customers can plan with confidence and enhance resource allocation.
Our smart labels also provide precise temperature readings for each item, allowing you to quickly identify and isolate any temperature deviations. This ensures that only affected goods are flagged while the rest of your cargo remains uncompromised. Safeguard your products and profits by minimising spoilage and reducing waste.
Reduce risk exposure throughout the transport cycle with a combination of sensors that help safeguard your goods from damage and theft—shock sensors identify physical impacts, while light sensors respond to trailer or box breaches. This real-time information enables swift intervention, drives up accountability, reduces future risks and lowers the cost and volume of insurance claims.
