- Vammon — Vammon is a Saas platform designed for logistics optimization, using it you can manage your logistics flows In/Out collaborating with customers and suppliers who are companies or transporters. It is possible to manage price auctions, book loads, issue transport orders, confirm availability of material, manage travel documents, certificates,communications between the parties and traceability of the goods, but also manage transport problems, reservations of loading and unloading at the loading docks or on third-party platforms, and all WITHOUT making phone calls or writing emails. All this collected data provides detailed analysison flows allow you to define the best routes, analyze times or quantities of material shipped to evaluate variations in work programs. It is finally possible to have certain data on the impact generated for Scope 3, in fact every transport is managed separately from the others and has, among other things, certain data on the vehicles used and the distances travelled, and therefore on the impact generated. We calculate that a company that moves 500 packages (in different shipments) can save up to 1500 hours of work in one year. The target customer is any company that produces, processes, reworks or markets products that needs to ship material on pallets or in large boxes that cannot be moved manually or without the use of transport equipment handling, or companies that need to manage arrivals and departures from their warehouses, or freight forwarders or couriers who handle large quantities of material. To date, Saas Vammon seems to be the only one that allows the management of shipments and dialogue between company/transporter/supplier at 360 degrees and without constraints, all other platforms are for use exclusive to the customers of individual transporters or forces customers to exchange messages and emails for negotiations.
