Transport administration may not be the most exciting topic at a logistics meeting, but it is critical for getting goods delivered on time, to the right place, and at the right cost. Blue TA, a new solution from Connect Companies, challenges established TA systems and puts the user’s needs first.
When traditional systems fall short
For many companies – from retail giants to logistics providers – TA systems have become a necessary business process. They are often difficult to customize, expensive to operate, and dependent on external support, that may not even be available in critical moments. A typical example: when labels don’t print in time, entire outbound flows can stop.
“There is a clear gap between what companies need and what today’s TA solutions actually offer. We developed Blue TA to close that gap,” said Stefan Jörkander, CEO of Connect Companies.
Four key principles behind Blue TA
- Simplicity: All configuration is managed centrally, and carriers come with pre-defined rules, ensuring implementation and operation is seamless.
- Speed: From command to printed label in under 0.9 seconds, thanks to direct printer communication.
- Reliability: By generating labels locally and communicating directly with carrier systems, Blue TA minimizes the risk of operational disruptions.
- Cost-efficiency: With a fixed monthly fee, customers are expected to achieve ROI within six months.
Proven results at pilot customers
For companies with large transport volumes, the cost savings are substantial, while stoppages associated with traditional, internet-dependent TA systems are eliminated.
“We quickly and easily replaced our old system with Blue TA. Now we avoid downtime, and the investment paid for itself in just five months,” said Pontus Davidsson, CEO of Golvabia AB.
Cloud or local installation – you decide
Blue TA is available as a cloud service or as an on-prem installation, enabling businesses to choose the option that best fits their IT requirements. For organizations which place high demands on reliability, local installation removes the dependency on internet connections during critical processes.
A promise of an unproblematic logistics day
With Blue TA, Connect Companies sets a new standard for how TA systems should work: as a mission-critical service that simply works, every day.
“Blue TA is not just a technology product, it’s a business solution. And in logistics, if the system doesn’t deliver, our customers don’t deliver either,” concluded Jörkander.
