New Needs and Pursuit of Quality
Operating in the Brazilian market for over a decade, SIRVA handles the expatriation and relocation of hundreds of professionals. With a monthly average of over 100 international shipments, their ongoing goal is to provide more agile and quality services to their clients.
Despite the high frequency of shipments across various modes and destinations, SIRVA was reliant on just two freight agents for its operations, managing freight proposals through emails and phone calls.
However, these two chosen freight agents, due to longstanding relationships, were delivering subpar service and charging freight rates above market standards.
Agility and Greater Cost Efficiency through Digitalization
Through the Cheap2Ship digital platform, SIRVA quickly enhanced efficiency in managing and procuring international freight. The platform’s dashboard allowed them to consolidate multiple proposals through a single request.
The operational team responsible for the multinational’s freight quotations has access to various comparison views of proposals: more than 9 types of graphs and tables, displaying detailed analyses and other specific needs.
“Using Cheap2Ship is simple and easy. We were able to optimize both time and secure more competitive freight costs. Cheap2Ship’s proposal is very innovative and something that was missing in the market.”
Arthur Domingues, HHG Pricing Manager.
