Frequently Asked Questions

What is transportation analytics?

Transportation analytics is the process of analysing shipment, carrier, cost, booking, yard and service data to improve logistics decisions. It helps shippers identify trends, compare performance, detect operational anomalies and understand where costs or delays occur. Transportation analytics turns the data generated by daily logistics operations into information that teams can use to improve efficiency, service and resilience.

What is Transporeon Network Insights?

Transporeon Network Insights is a central transportation analytics and reporting solution for shippers. It transforms transportation data within the Transporeon platform into standardised dashboards, metrics and actionable insights. The solution helps logistics teams analyse carrier, freight and yard performance without building reports manually or undertaking a heavily customised business intelligence project.⁠⁠⁠⁠

Who is Network Insights designed for?

Network Insights is designed primarily for shippers that use Transporeon solutions and want to understand and improve their transportation network. It is especially relevant for logistics teams managing large amounts of transport, carrier, visibility, booking or yard data. Decision-makers, transport managers, procurement teams and operational users can use the dashboards to support different performance-improvement initiatives.

What are the main challenges of manual transportation reporting?

Manual transportation reporting requires teams to collect, clean and combine data from spreadsheets and disconnected systems. Reports can become outdated quickly, contain errors or provide only a partial view of the logistics network. Creating advanced analyses also requires specialist resources, leaving transport and IT teams spending time maintaining reports instead of acting on the insights.

How does Network Insights work?

Network Insights uses transportation data generated within the Transporeon platform to create standardised dashboards and metrics. It automatically consolidates and analyses relevant information, allowing users to explore results with filters and different reporting views. Logistics teams can then identify trends, anomalies, bottlenecks and improvement opportunities without manually building the underlying analysis.

How is Network Insights different from a generic business intelligence tool?

Network Insights provides out-of-the-box analytics designed specifically for transportation and logistics. Generic tools such as spreadsheets or general BI platforms often require data preparation, dashboard development, specialist expertise and ongoing maintenance. Network Insights provides predefined logistics metrics and dashboards while still allowing users to filter reports and export data for more tailored analysis.⁠⁠

What dashboards and metrics are available in Network Insights?

Network Insights provides standardised dashboards covering important areas of transportation management, including carrier performance, freight activity, bookings and yard operations. Depending on the available Transporeon data, users can analyse metrics such as transport prices, shipment volumes, punctuality, assignments, booking activity, service quality and carbon emissions.

How does Network Insights analyse carrier performance?

Network Insights brings carrier performance data into a central reporting environment. Shippers can evaluate areas such as delivery punctuality, service quality, transport assignments, volumes and other relevant performance indicators. This enables carrier decisions to be based on recorded operational performance rather than relying only on relationships, anecdotal feedback or individual experiences.

What freight and booking insights does Network Insights provide?

Network Insights helps shippers analyse freight activity, transport assignments, execution performance and booking behaviour. It can reveal patterns in volumes, prices, routes, punctuality and service outcomes. These insights help logistics teams understand how freight moves through their network and identify where processes, carrier choices or resource allocation could be improved.

How does Network Insights support yard performance analysis?

Network Insights can analyse yard and time-slot activity, including booking quotas, available capacity and the punctuality of truck arrivals. This helps shippers identify bottlenecks, underused resources and recurring delays at operational locations. The resulting insights can support better capacity planning, more efficient truck flows and improved coordination between transport and yard operations.⁠⁠

Can Network Insights benchmark transportation performance?

Yes. Network Insights supports internal performance comparisons and can provide benchmarking capabilities for comparing relevant results with the wider market. Benchmarking helps shippers understand whether their costs, service levels or operational performance are consistent with broader trends. These comparisons can reveal improvement opportunities and support more realistic performance targets.

Does Network Insights provide real-time transportation data?

Network Insights uses data available within the Transporeon platform to keep relevant dashboards and metrics current. This gives logistics teams a more timely view than manually maintained reports that may become outdated between reporting cycles. Data availability and update frequency can depend on the underlying Transporeon applications, integrations and operational processes.

How does Network Insights support actionable decision-making and risk management?

Network Insights identifies trends, anomalies and potential issues within transportation data. Recommendations and alerts can help teams move from reviewing historical performance to taking informed action. Long-term trend analysis also supports proactive risk management by revealing recurring bottlenecks and risks associated with prices, carrier performance, delivery quality or yard operations.⁠⁠⁠⁠

How can Network Insights reduce costs and improve carrier negotiations?

Network Insights gives procurement and logistics teams factual information about prices, volumes, carrier performance and service quality. This evidence can strengthen carrier negotiations and help shippers allocate freight based on actual results. It can also reveal inefficient processes, recurring extra costs and underperforming parts of the network, helping teams prioritise cost-reduction measures.

Can data from Network Insights be exported for customised reporting?

Yes. Network Insights provides standardised data export capabilities for organisations that want to conduct additional analysis or create tailored reports. Shippers can benefit from ready-made dashboards for common logistics questions while exporting relevant data for company-specific requirements. This provides flexibility without requiring every transportation report to be built from the ground up.
