Visibility for Carriers

Predictive visibility for carriers

Using Real-Time Visibility, carriers do have the capability to act like modern tech companies. By leveraging the data they generate through the Transporeon Transportation Management Platform, carriers can showcase themselves to a wider pool of shippers, establish their credibility, offer more value to potential customers and keep existing ones happy.

Open Visibility Data

What? Share your real-time visibility data freely and openly with your shippers or goods recipients no matter which visibility platform or TMS these stakeholders are using.

Why? Visibility data needs to be freely exchanged between networks as various stakeholders are inevitably customers of different visibility platforms thus maximizing the value for all participants of the supply chain.

How? We launched Open Visibility Data — an API that gives simple access to visibility data to all authorized stakeholders of a transport. Just contact support and we will make this happen.

As the developer responsible for Swift's integration with Transporeon Visibility’s API, I was impressed by how clear and well-structured the documentation and onboarding process were. Working closely with Bryan Menendez made a big difference—his detailed guidance and responsiveness ensured that everything went smoothly. Since going live, the integration has significantly improved our shipment visibility and helped us deliver more timely, accurate updates to our partners. I highly recommend Transporeon’s API to any team looking to enhance logistics visibility and efficiency.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is real-time transportation visibility for carriers?

Real-time transportation visibility allows carriers to share the current location, status and estimated arrival time of shipments with authorised customers. It uses data from vehicles, telematics and transport systems to generate automated tracking updates. This reduces the need for dispatchers and drivers to provide shipment statuses manually.

What is Transporeon Visibility for carriers?

Transporeon Visibility is an AI-enabled shipment tracking and monitoring solution for carriers and logistics service providers. It processes transport and GPS data to provide live locations, predictive ETAs, shipment statuses and delay alerts. Carriers can share this information with authorised shippers and goods recipients while retaining control over their data.⁠⁠

Who is Transporeon Visibility designed for?

Transporeon Visibility is designed for road carriers, freight forwarders and logistics service providers that want to automate shipment tracking and provide more reliable updates to customers. It supports carriers managing their own vehicles as well as organisations working with subcontractors. It is particularly useful for teams that still depend on check calls, emails or manual status updates.

How does real-time visibility work for a carrier?

A carrier connects its telematics, fleet management system, TMS or another compatible data source with Transporeon Visibility. The solution processes the available GPS and shipment data to determine location, status and estimated arrival times. Authorised shippers can then monitor their transports and receive updates without repeatedly contacting the carrier.

What are the benefits of real-time visibility for carriers?

Real-time visibility helps carriers reduce manual communication, improve transport planning and provide more accurate customer updates. Predictive ETAs can also support better coordination at loading and unloading locations. By demonstrating reliable tracking performance, carriers can strengthen customer relationships and differentiate their service when competing for freight.

Does Transporeon Visibility require additional vehicle hardware?

In many cases, no additional hardware is required. Transporeon Visibility can connect with existing telematics and fleet management systems to use data already generated by the vehicle. Transporeon states that its connectivity covers approximately 95% of the telematics market, although compatibility should be confirmed for the carrier’s specific provider.

Do drivers need to enter shipment statuses manually?

Transporeon Visibility is designed to automate tracking and status updates using connected vehicle and transport data. This means drivers generally do not need to make check calls or manually report every shipment milestone. The exact process depends on the carrier’s systems, available data and integration setup.

How do predictive ETAs help carriers reduce waiting time?

Predictive ETAs give loading and unloading locations advance information about when a vehicle is expected to arrive. Facilities can use this information to prepare resources or reschedule a time slot when a delay occurs. Better coordination can reduce avoidable waiting, although the result also depends on how the shipper or goods recipient uses the ETA data.

Can real-time visibility reduce check calls and emails?

Yes. When shippers and goods recipients have access to live shipment statuses and predictive ETAs, they have less need to contact the carrier for updates. This reduces repetitive calls and emails for dispatchers and customer service teams. Employees can spend more time managing exceptions and discussing issues that genuinely require collaboration.

Can carriers track their own fleet and subcontractors?

Yes. Carriers can connect tracking information from their own fleet and expand visibility coverage by requesting data-sharing consent from subcontractors. This creates a more consistent view of transports executed by different operational partners. The carrier can also monitor visibility performance across customers and subcontractors through the Visibility Control Center.⁠⁠

How can Visibility help carriers improve customer service?

Visibility gives customers timely, accurate information about shipment progress and expected arrival. When a delay occurs, carriers can communicate proactively rather than waiting for the customer to request an update. This transparency can increase customer confidence, improve service reviews and provide a shared source of truth when discussing transport performance.

Can real-time visibility help carriers win more business?

Real-time visibility can strengthen a carrier’s value proposition by demonstrating reliable tracking, transparent communication and digital capabilities. Shippers increasingly expect accurate status information and predictive ETAs as part of the transportation service. Visibility does not guarantee additional freight, but it can help carriers establish credibility and differentiate themselves in customer discussions.
