Case Study: Gebrüder Weiss achieves real‑time, audit‑compliant container management and lower costs with inet logistics' Container Management

Gebrüder Weiss - Customer Case Study

Gebrüder Weiss, the largest privately owned freight forwarder in Austria, faced a growing administrative burden managing roughly 7,000 container movements per subsidiary each month across 60 container types. Their legacy Access-based system recorded movements only locally, prevented central data administration or cross-subsidiary visibility, and made it difficult to trace loss, damage and customer accounts. To solve this, Gebrüder Weiss implemented inet Container Management from inet logistics.

inet logistics deployed a central, bookkeeping-style Container Management and integration/communication platform that records incoming/outgoing containers, liabilities and confirmations in real time and is operated as software-on-demand from inet logistics’ data centers. The solution reduced management and maintenance effort and costs, cut repair and spare-part expenditures, enabled usage-based container fee settlement, eliminated manual data entry for integrated major customers, and delivers audit-compliant, cross-company real-time visibility of container movements across Europe.
