Schneider Logistics Europe’s multicultural, multilingual teams of transport specialists are experts in moving freight at competitive rates. We are a non-asset-based, carrier-neutral logistics provider with no network restrictions. This means we can select and negotiate the best rate and service combinations with a large network of carriers that provide flexibility and reliability. For businesses large or small, Schneider Logistics covers Europe.
From transaction-based brokerage solutions to the complex management of customer supply chains, Schneider Logistics delivers:
- Strong carrier relationships that ensure dependability
- Advanced monitoring tools for complete reliability, security and control

- Exception management processes that improve customer communication and increase satisfaction
- Greater competitiveness through outsourcing of the logistics function
- Increased profits through minimizing transportation costs
System Interfaces: Schneider Logistics has extensive expertise in establishing system interfaces with both its customers and supply chain partners that communicate in a variety of formats, including EDIFACT and XML. We support multiple message types.
Order Creation: Orders can be created directly and automatically via EDI transactions, Internet order entry or manually from information via fax, email or other electronic types of communication.
Planning and Optimizing: Our SUMIT Planner and Optimizer is a powerful planning tool that helps build operationally feasible multi-stop movements and/or consolidation based on a common ship-to address. Optimization is the daily development and implementation of a transportation plan by analyzing your requested delivery window and available resources to maximize equipment utilization.
Carrier Communication: Shipments are communicated to the carrier via EDI or, if carriers don’t have EDI capabilities, the Web. Through our Web Tender and Track application, carriers receive notification of tendered shipments, accept or turn down shipments and provide feedback as it relates to shipment status updates.
Tracking and Tracing: Schneider Track and Trace is a Web-based shipment tracking application that provides detailed shipment tracking functionality. Shipper, carrier and consignee information is available, including pick-up, delivery, product and all reference information associated with the order.
InterAcc™ Reporting: Our Web-based, interactive management tool provides complete operational and financial analytics. These reports can be customized to suit specific reporting requirements. Some report examples include volume and cost, truck utilization, supplier performance, carrier performance and transit time.
