Case Study: Saint-Gobain achieves greater transparency and fewer transport errors with Transporeon Group

Saint-Gobain - Customer Case Study

Saint-Gobain, a Belgium-based construction materials company and market leader in gypsum boards, faced major logistics communication issues across Belgium, France, and the Netherlands. With no common method to coordinate with carriers, the company dealt with poor data alignment, manual entry errors, and misunderstandings in transport allocation. Transporeon Group helped address these challenges with its cloud-based logistics platform, including Transport Assignment, Time Slot Management, and SAP ERP integration.

Transporeon Group implemented a centralized, cloud-based solution that automated fixed-contract transport allocation and improved loading and unloading processes. The result was significantly greater accuracy, with transport allocation errors reduced across up to 1,300 monthly assignments, while transparency improved because all transactions became visible, regulated, and controlled. Carriers also received order data directly into their own systems, reducing miscommunication and manual work.
