5PL & Digital Supply Chain Integrations

Digital supply chain integration

Your systems, your carriers and your chain connected directly to each other.

Schematic illustration for Digital supply chain integration

Digital supply chain integration means connecting the systems of all parties in the logistics chain, so that information is exchanged automatically and without manual intervention. Without that connection, the same order is sometimes entered three times: in your own system, in an email to the carrier and in the carrier’s planning software. Every manual step takes time and creates a chance of errors. Noventra connects your organisation and your carriers through OrangeChain.

01

How does the integration work?

Your system connected to OrangeChain
Through an API link with your ERP, WMS or TMS, transport orders go straight into OrangeChain, without anyone having to re-enter them. Noventra guides the technical connection together with your IT department or software supplier.

Carriers connected to OrangeChain
Carriers connect their systems too. As a result, trip data and progress information come in automatically, instead of by phone or email.

Growing step by step
No link yet? Then you start with the online dashboard and switch to an API link as soon as it is ready. That way, getting started does not have to wait for a full IT project.

02

What information is exchanged?

  • transport orders and changes to them
  • acceptance by the carrier
  • status information throughout the trip, up to and including delivery
  • expected arrival times
  • proofs of delivery (POD), available whenever you need them
  • additional costs, deviations and claims

Secure and careful

Integration involves commercially sensitive and sometimes personal data. That is why we work with access management, encryption and clear data protection agreements in line with the GDPR. Should a link unexpectedly fail, there is always a manual fallback option, so your transport keeps running.
