In today’s fast-paced and interconnected supply chain, seamless integrations are essential for companies to stay competitive. Traditional methods of outsourcing and implementing EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) connectivity are both time-consuming and cost-prohibitive. But now, auto transport carriers, car haulers, and fleets have a solution tailored specifically for their OEM transport needs—Super Dispatch’s EDI integration.
Integrating EDI with Your Auto Transport Platform
For those unfamiliar, EDI facilitates direct electronic document exchange between Super Dispatch Carrier TMS and OEM business operating systems – making an EDI integration critical to moving new cars. EDI replaces traditional paper-based methods, yielding significant advantages such as cost savings, accelerated processing times, reduced errors, and enhanced partner relationships.
Super Dispatch’s EDI integration makes it easier than ever to move new cars on our platform. By implementing this EDI connection, you will unlock streamlined operations and enhanced supply chain efficiency with a connection tailored to meet the document exchange requirements of OEMs. It’s more than just now being able to move cars for OEMs using Super Dispatch, it’s about welcoming a future full of easier transport.
Here are some additional benefits of leveraging the Super Dispatch EDI integration:
- Streamlined Operations: Instantly exchange documents like advance shipping notices, status updates, and invoices without the need for manual intervention, carriers can focus on mission-critical tasks rather than administrative ones.
- Enhanced Visibility: Seamlessly integrate Super Dispatch with EDI to optimize workflow processes and effectively manage the transportation of new vehicles for OEMs.
- Wider Connectivity: Connect seamlessly with the most frequently used EDI systems to transport new cars for the auto industry’s most popular OEMs, including Ford, Honda, Mitsubishi, Kia, and Volkswagen.
- Improved Tracking: Automatically send order updates through the EDI integration, including pickup date scheduled, delivery date scheduled, driver arrived at origin, vehicle picked up, driver arrived at destination, vehicle delivered, and pickup/delivery AIAG damages.
- Cost Savings: Super Dispatch includes EDI integrations for only $1.00 per VIN delivered. This approach saves carriers hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars per integration.
How Integrating EDI with Super Dispatch Works
Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to make the most out of Super Dispatch’s EDI integration:
Step 1: Seamless Document Exchange
Advance shipping notices for orders/shipments will be automatically added to the Carrier TMS dashboard. When the OEM changes the status to “Ready to Transport”, the load will be ready to be dispatched to a driver. This eliminates the need for manual data entry and reduces the risk of errors.
Step 2: Automated Bundling
Shipments will be bundled into loads based on origin/destination and maximum load capacity, optimizing your fleet’s efficiency and reducing unnecessary trips.
Step 3: Real-Time Updates
Every shipment/vehicle will automatically be assigned with AIAG as the inspection type. This ensures compliance and consistency across all shipments.
