The orchestration platform of ZF SCALAR improves cargo tracking by utilizing Shippeo. Subcontractors gain visibility regardless of the telematics solution they use, and carriers benefit from highly accurate real-time operational visibility over their flows and predictive Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) information.

Shippeo's multimodal real-time transportation visibility solution powers ZF's SCALAR orchestration platform, which provides sophisticated freight track-and-trace capabilities. With the highly accurate, real-time visibility this upgraded technology offers carriers over their consignments, they can create supply chains that are more customer-focused and resilient.

Through this partnership, Shippeo's cutting-edge road, air, and maritime shipment tracking solutions are seamlessly included into ZF's SCALAR orchestration platform. Logistics companies may reduce possible delays, maximize line-haul and delivery efficiencies, and enhance on-time deliveries by offering real-time and predictive insight.

"The integration of Shippeo's real-time visibility into the SCALAR orchestration platform helps to simplify the complexities of modern logistics, enabling carriers to strengthen the resilience and reliability of their line-haul networks," stated Hjalmar van Raemdonck, ZF's VP SCALAR in the division Commercial Vehicle Solutions. Our logistics customers will be able to more precisely coordinate their fleets, resulting in improved route optimization, reduced delays, and increased supply chain efficiency by having an extra layer of visibility.

CEO and co-founder of Shippeo Pierre Khoury: "We're immensely happy to work with a major player in the global automotive industry like ZF. ZF will have the ability to maximize carrier transportation capacity and guarantee on-time delivery at the most competitive cost by utilizing Shippeo's cutting-edge visibility platform. Additionally, Shippeo's end-to-end visibility will give ZF a supply chain that is more environmentally friendly.

Carrier real-time ETA visibility for both trucks and trailers is equalized when cargo visibility is integrated into SCALAR. Trailer tracking solutions are very helpful for carriers who only use them; this is especially true when various trucks—telematics or not—pick up the trailers. Carriers are able to optimize their operational procedures by gaining insightful knowledge on subcontractor performance with the Shippeo integration. Carriers can lessen their environmental effect because they also have simple access to reliable CO2 emission information broken down by shipping order.
