The multi-modal courier platform represents a sustainability innovation in Europe and swissconnect ag is considered a pioneer with its concept. It allows for nearly CO2-neutral transport performance thanks to the 'bike / train' combination. Particularly noteworthy is the ICT platform for handling its services together with 80 courier companies and ten railway companies.
In most cases, the combination of several courier partners mentioned above is the fastest, most ecological and most cost-effective way to transport goods. This swissconnect transport system is unique in Switzerland and provides the customer with the appropriate means of transport at the right time and the right place. In the case of urgent large and heavy consignments, the software automatically points to a direct journey and we offer a courier with the corresponding means of transport who can take the consignment from the sender to the recipient without reloading. In addition to holiday planning, a CO2 calculator is also integrated. This calculates the pollutants saved, since the software selects not only the fastest but also the most ecological route.
The major partners of swissconnect see all shipments in their area directly on their dispatcher’s own monitors and can pick up swissconnect orders themselves. In addition, swissconnect offers an in-house courier app, with which smaller partner companies and the individual bicycle and car couriers can obtain information digitally. All common interfaces to internal and external peripheral systems are offered and are used productively. These include REST API, SOAP Webservice, Flat-File and XML interfaces. This means, for example, that railway personnel are automatically informed about an impending express delivery or customers can transmit orders to swissconnect directly from their familiar ERP system (e.g. SAP).
The open e-business platform of swissconnect combines Switzerland's numerous local courier companies and railway companies into a high-performance value-added community. Coordination is largely automated, accelerated and error-reduced through the platform.
