Car transfer marketplace
For a partner in the automotive segment, we developed a platform that enables drivers, freight forwarders and clients to trade vehicle transfers.
The platform maps 360 degrees of the process from order creation, assignment (low bid or price proposals) and execution to secure billing and documentation.
Freight forwarders can bid and execute their processes more efficiently. Individual drivers gain access to orders from large clients. And clients benefit from more transport capacities as well as extremely efficient and reliable handling.
The Process
Key Facts
Initial situation
In the previous solution for vehicle transports, orders could only be distributed to freight forwarders according to fixed metrics. Onboarding new partners was time-consuming, which meant that the growing volume of transfers could not be adequately served.
Objective
- Increase in vehicle transfer capacity with simultaneous increase in efficiency
- Opening up new markets with potential drivers
- Avoidance of fraud through validated driver accounts
- Optimized trip planning through extensive search
- Guaranteed and predictable payments through connection to a factoring service provider
Challenges
- B2C-like user experience in the front end, also on mobile devices
- Deep integration of external interfaces into the core process (transport management tool PS Speedlog, factoring service provider)
- Extensive registration & onboarding process
- Enable transparent and direct communication between clients and contractors

"The critical questioning by the team helps to find the best solution - and not only in a technical sense. At times, I have the feeling that the desired solution project team understands the business better than some in the industry."

What makes it special
Location Based Services
With the help of search, transfers can be searched for and found with pinpoint accuracy. This makes it possible to plan tours across several clients and thus optimize return or round trips.
Auction system + price proposals
Providers can award rides via a low-bid process or by reviewing specific price proposals.
Checked drivers + approval
Credit check + IDnow procedure + manual check of the profiles by the driviva support team in the back office.
Fast payment + factoring
Guaranteed prompt payment through the possibility of real factoring, independent of ride providers.
Qualification-Level
Providers have the option to limit the desired target group of drivers by minimum qualifications, such as minimum age, existing experience or certificate of good conduct.
