Frequently Asked Questions

What is automated freight execution?

Automated freight execution is the digital management of transport orders from carrier allocation through acceptance and shipment execution. Instead of coordinating assignments through emails, phone calls or spreadsheets, shippers use predefined rules, contracted rates and connected systems to transfer orders to carriers. This reduces administrative work, accelerates assignment and creates a consistent digital record of the process.

What is Transporeon No-touch Order?

Transporeon No-touch Order is an automated freight execution solution for managing contracted shipments between shippers and carriers. It transfers transport orders and their details to selected carriers through one digital platform. Carrier selection can come from the shipper’s existing system or be determined automatically using predefined allocation rules and contracted rates.

Who is No-touch Order designed for?

No-touch Order is designed for shippers that regularly assign freight to contracted carriers. It is particularly relevant for logistics operations with high shipment volumes, large carrier networks or significant manual communication. It helps organisations standardise freight allocation, control contracted transport costs and give logistics teams more time to focus on exceptions and strategic activities.

How does No-touch Order work?

First, the shipper creates a transport in Transporeon or an integrated ERP or TMS. The shipper then selects No-touch Order as the assignment method, and the transport is allocated to a carrier using an existing selection or predefined rules. The carrier receives the complete transport order and, depending on the commercial agreement, accepts or rejects it within the specified deadline.

What are the main challenges of manual freight assignment?

Manual freight assignment requires dispatchers to contact carriers, exchange shipment details, verify rates and document responses individually. This makes the process time-consuming, difficult to scale and vulnerable to communication errors. It can also limit transparency, delay carrier confirmation and make it harder to apply allocation rules and contracted rates consistently.

How is No-touch Order different from spot freight procurement?

No-touch Order is primarily used to assign shipments to contracted carriers at agreed freight rates. Spot freight procurement is used when a shipper needs to source capacity or prices outside existing contractual allocations. Within Transporeon, Best Carrier and Autonomous Procurement support spot assignments, while No-touch Order automates the execution of predictable contracted freight.⁠⁠

How does No-touch Order reduce freight assignment process costs?

No-touch Order reduces process costs by replacing repetitive carrier communication and manual data entry with a standardised digital workflow. Transport orders, rates, allocation decisions and carrier responses are managed in one platform. Depending on the shipper’s existing processes and level of automation, No-touch Order can reduce freight assignment process costs by up to 30%.

How can No-touch Order reduce freight costs?

No-touch Order can reduce freight costs by applying contracted rates consistently, automating price calculation and allocating shipments according to predefined criteria. Better carrier selection and more efficient use of available capacity can also reduce unnecessary transport activity. According to Transporeon, customers can save up to 19% on freight costs, although actual results depend on their network and operations.

How does automatic carrier allocation work?

Automatic carrier allocation assigns transports using shipper-defined criteria such as route, destination, vehicle requirements, carrier agreements and available capacity. These rules help direct each order to a suitable contracted carrier without requiring the dispatcher to repeat the selection process manually. AI and predictive models can provide additional capacity insights to support allocation decisions.

How does No-touch Order support automatic pricing and cost control?

No-touch Order can calculate transport prices using contracted rates and defined criteria such as destination, vehicle type and applicable surcharges. Transporeon Rate Management can provide the relevant carrier and rate data for the assignment. This helps shippers apply agreed prices consistently, improve cost control and reduce manual rate checks.

Can carriers accept or reject a No-touch Order assignment?

Yes. Depending on the agreement, a carrier can accept or reject a transport order received through No-touch Order. Acceptance confirms the assignment and gives the carrier access to the relevant shipment information. If the carrier rejects the order or does not respond within the deadline, the shipper can apply another allocation rule, select a different carrier or use a spot assignment method.

Can No-touch Order integrate with an existing ERP or TMS?

Yes. No-touch Order can integrate with an existing ERP or TMS so that transport orders and carrier data flow directly into the assignment process. This reduces duplicate data entry and allows shippers to add automated freight execution without replacing their core business systems. Carrier selection can come from the in-house system or be generated using Transporeon allocation and rate-management rules.

Can No-touch Order manage partial deliveries and transport groups?

Yes. No-touch Order can assign partial deliveries to different carriers when a transport order needs to be divided. It can also group individual transports into one transport order, for example when defining a round trip. These capabilities give shippers more flexibility in structuring contracted freight assignments around their operational requirements.

What are carrier-managed transports?

Carrier-managed transports allow authorised carriers to create or manage transports under the shipper’s approval. Delegating selected planning activities can reduce the shipper’s administrative workload and give carriers greater control over their own capacity. The shipper retains oversight while both parties collaborate through the same digital platform.

Can No-touch Order help reduce empty runs and transport emissions?

No-touch Order can help reduce empty runs by allocating contracted shipments more efficiently and giving carriers better visibility of available transport orders. Better coordination can improve asset utilisation and reduce avoidable empty kilometres. This may lower fuel consumption and transport emissions, although the actual impact depends on the carrier network, shipment flows and allocation strategy.
