What we mean when we talk about Digital Transport Agreements
Last updated 22 Dec 2023
What is a Digital Transport Agreement?
A Digital Transport Agreement is a digitalized representation of any transport agreement you have with a transporter, as a freight buyer, or with a client, as a freight seller.
Compared to your usual transport agreements received in a paper format, the Skrym API for transport agreements reads in all the data - the terms, conditions and exact costs - that the agreement contains. In this way, information that is already available is used to make precise calculations, outputting the exact cost of any shipment you send/receive together with a breakdown of predicted penalty and/or added fees.
This can be done both before or after sending a shipment (as long as you know the tracking IDs), giving you additional flexibility in gathering insights about your logistical flows and how to leverage your current transport agreements.
Validate your shipping costs in a reliable way and gain control over your costs by using Skrym's support for Digital Transport Agreements.
