Case Study: Altrea Logistics Group unifies transport operations with Qargo TMS

Altrea Logistics Group - Customer Case Study

Altrea Logistics Group, an established Belgian transport company consisting of multiple specialized divisions, faced significant inefficiency from using three different legacy transport management systems across its organization. Seeking standardization and modernization, their IT Manager, Thomas Havermans, sought a scalable software-as-a-service solution from an innovative partner. The challenge was to find a unified TMS that could handle complex operations like tracking tank container contents and planning intermodal transport without forcing each unique company within the group into an identical workflow.

The vendor, Qargo, implemented its TMS, creating tailored environments for each of Altrea's companies while using a new network module to allow them to collaborate and exchange orders. This solution provided the needed standardization while preserving operational uniqueness. The partnership was mutually beneficial; innovations developed for Altrea were subsequently rolled out to Qargo's other customers. The implementation was a success, with positive employee feedback and a rollout so efficient that the entire group was set to be operational on the Qargo system well ahead of the original end-of-year schedule.
