Pricing & transport economics

Every price can be explained

The pricing engine follows a fixed hierarchy and your own rules. The same input always yields the same price, and every line item can be traced back to the underlying rule.

Proof of concept on your own data, at a fixed price

Illustration: a fictional price calculation where each line shows the rule that generated the amount, along with a total price.

Capabilities of the pricing engine

  • Fixed pricing hierarchy

    Standard rate → customer agreement → service- and customer-specific rate.

  • Multiple rate types

    Zone rates, hourly rates as well as unit, pallet and weight rates.

  • Discounts and special rates

    Per customer and per service, with validity periods.

  • Automated surcharges

    Fuel and oil surcharges based on index, environmental surcharges, road tolls and distance surcharges.

  • Bridge and ferry tolls

    Tolls are added to the order and carry through to the invoice.

  • Quote to order

    An accepted quote converts into an order without re-entry.

  • Vehicle and department accounts

    Contribution margin per vehicle, department and business unit.

  • Traceability and history

    Every price can be traced back to the rule that generated it. Price changes are logged and can be rolled back.
