Freight-procurement and transportation-execution records generated inside its transportation-management platform as configured in large enterprise shipper landscapes: tender definitions with assigned carriers, per-carrier quotation submission and revision cycles, negotiation ranking and lane/area formation results, award confirmations, and the resulting long-term freight contracts, plus the operational shipment and cost records the awarded contracts drive. Reference case documents the full lifecycle end to end — historic volumes imported from warehouse and operational systems, quotation generation and carrier notification, offers submitted and adjusted, analysis/optimization/ranking/area formation, award publication, contract creation and export.

Dataset card

Type: not stated
Format: Structured tabular records exchanged over documented interfaces — bidirectional XML for bid data (superseding earlier spreadsheet exchange), warehouse integration for analysis and reporting, and a geographic area-formation service for lane grouping
Volume: est. very large in aggregate but unquantifiable from public sources — each tender round generates quotes per invited carrier per lane per mode, multiplied across the enterprise tenants running the module and across successive rounds, with history retained additively because preparation imports prior volumes and awards export to long-lived contracts
Users: est. very large but not platform-wide measurable — the exchange model publishes each tender to a standing community of invited carriers and service providers per enterprise shipper, so external supplier accounts run to the tens of thousands aggregated across tenant landscapes, with internal procurement and logistics users in the thousands per large tenant (no account counts disclosed)
History: 20 years
Update frequency: not stated
Growth: Mature and Active — a long-in-service production module still under investment, evidenced by its documented architecture evolution from spreadsheet-based bid exchange to a bidirectional XML interface and standing warehouse and area-formation integrations
Launched: est. 2000s for the transportation-management procurement module — an internet-based tender exchange that originally depended on spreadsheets for bid data and later added XML, integrated to a classic enterprise data warehouse and a geographic area-formation service, is characteristic of that generation of procurement systems
