Key Takeaways - Frictionless Logistics: It’s the Collaboration, Stupid
- Ketan and the Turvo team have taken a fresh look at the way freight moves and the people involved in each shipment. Some observations:
- Logistics is a team sport and the team can't function at a high level without collaboration. Many existing TMS are built with a system view, not a customer view. The system view created point solutions and the need for time-consuming, costly system integrations.
- Technology stacks, legacy systems and a focus on individual silos result in a poor customer experience
- The goal of collaboration should be connecting people and systems to move things effectively and efficiently.
- Turvo has designed their platform to enable shippers, carriers, 3PL, and any other stakeholders to collaborate around one true record.
- Turvo's goal is to create one seamless experience that includes visibility, collaboration, and execution all in one place. The experience is elegant, intuitive, and in-context to the work that needs to be done.
- Frictionless logistics means doing the basics incredibly well. To reduce the friction and hassle, Turvo puts the visibility, collaboration, and execution all in one place
- Turvo's goal is to create an elevated customer experience that includes these key functions in one place:
- System of records (one truth of the transaction)
- Systems of engagement (communication and collaboration)
- System of intelligence (AI, analytics, etc.)
