Capability
Freight procurement where the awarded rate is the rate every bill gets checked against — automated bidding, lane benchmarks, carrier scoring
Your team negotiates on WhatsApp, tracks contracts in Excel, and finds rate leakage at the quarterly audit — after 3-5% has walked. Fretron awards onto the rate record dispatch and billing both reconcile against.
Fretron’s rails were built where logistics is hardest — 1M+ shipments a year, ₹10,000 Cr+ freight orchestrated for India’s biggest manufacturers
Key Capabilities
Every capability below reads — and writes — the same record.
RFQs on WhatsApp, not portals
Lane-level RFQs reach the whole panel in minutes — no registration, 100% lane coverage.
Flags a bid pre-award
A ₹2,100 quote flags against the ₹1,920 your own trips ran this lane.
Scored on trips that ran
OT%, damage, compliance computed from your executed trips — not a typed-in scorecard.
One rate, RFQ to billing
The awarded rate flows into dispatch and billing — fuel-indexed, renewal flagged at T-30.
The Problem
Freight procurement at most Indian manufacturers is a quarterly fire drill: an Excel RFQ emailed to 50-100 transporters, two weeks chasing responses, half the panel silent.
| Today | With Fretron |
|---|---|
| Excel RFQ emailed to 50-100 transporters | RFQ sent to the whole panel in one click |
| Two weeks chasing responses, panel silent | Transporters bid from WhatsApp, no registration |
| Contracts locked on gut feel | Bids benchmarked against lane history and data |
How It Works
Build a multi-lane RFQ with differential pricing once and send it to the whole panel in one click — transporters bid from WhatsApp, no registration, so participation actually happens. Bids are benchmarked against lane history, competing bids, and market data, then ranked with performance scores — awards weigh total value, not just the lowest bid.
The award is where most procurement processes stop, and where leakage starts. Here the awarded rate joins the shared record dispatch and billing both reconcile against: fuel indexation, volume tracking, deviation flags before payment.
