Read the case
CHALLENGE

In rail freight and intermodal transport, customer service teams are overwhelmed with repetitive questions:

  • “Where is my shipment?”
  • “Has my shipment cleared inspection?”
  • “When will my delivery arrive?”

Pain points:

  • Reactive communication—customers only hear about problems after they occur.
  • High manual workload for customer service teams handling repetitive status calls.
  • Lack of transparency creates frustration and damages trust.
  • Fragmented tools make it difficult to give quick, reliable answers.

The result: customer dissatisfaction, strained relationships, and high service costs.

The ovinto solution

Ovinto brings Amazon-like communication to B2B logistics, making proactive, automated updates part of daily operations.

  1. Connect: Integrate shipment data, TMS/ERP updates, IoT feeds, and inspection results into one environment.: Standardize data so it’s customer-ready.
  2. Orchestrate: Automate customer notifications: delivery ETA, delays, standstill alerts, inspection clearances. Send updates via email, portal, or API directly into the customer’s system. Configure no-code workflows tailored to each customer’s needs.
  3. Deliver: Customers get real-time, proactive updates—without calling your service team. CS teams shift from reactive firefighting to value-added support. Transparency improves trust and strengthens customer relationships.
