Breakthrough in Europe for Swedish e-logistic solution: TradeVision provides e-logistic solution to Deutsche Post Euro Express Stockholm, Sweden, June 19, 2000TradeVision will support Deutsche Post Euro Express and its partners with an integrated IT-system that will enable them to maintain full control of the logistic information flows relating to the Euro Express service, as well as to provide their customers with status tracking via the Internet. Deutsche Post World Net, which includes the three brands; Deutsche Post, Postbank and Danzas, is one of the largest and most powerful mail and logistic groups in the world. TradeVision was chosen by Euro Express, a subsidiary of the Deutsche Post, as its logistics supporter due to the flexibility, delivery time and the high functionality of its solution. One of the unique features of TradeVision LogiMan that attracted Deutsche Post Euro Express was the ability to track the cargo at the container, shipment and piece level. Deutsche Post and partners will, through TradeVisions integrated e-logistic network, have the full control of the information flows within the Euro Express service. Moreover, the company will be able to offer their clients updates with tracking via the Internet, a strategically important function within e-commerce. "Deutsche Post Euro Express is a major breakthrough for us in Europe. It will confirm our position as the leading e-logistic provider in Europe within the transportation sector and bring us over 100 million transactions per year. Within a few years our objective is to become the leading global e-logistic provider and to have more than 1 billion transactions in our system", says Claes Borglin, CEO of TradeVision. "We aim to offer comprehensive e-logistic solutions to all modes of transport by the end of this year. Together with the ability to connect all the business partners involved in the transportation chain in TradeVision Logiman , we are able to provide seamless information flows throughout the shipment process from the inception of a shipment to the final delivery to the end customer." It is to be understood from Carrie Ballard, Deutsche Post Customer Service Manager, that the TradeVision LogiMan system will enable Deutsche Post Euro Express to service customers proactively. Instead of customers contacting the company, it is now possible to notify customers of any shipment discrepancies or important milestone events according to customer requirements. The TradeVision LogiMan system tracks each shipment proactively and thereby automatically sends out discrepancy alerts. This will greatly assist Deutsche Post Euro Express in providing a more efficient customer service and deal with problem shipments more effectively.
