What makes spot tendering with eFrexx different

Award single shipments quickly, without hunting for quotes in emails and spreadsheets.

  • Tendered in minutes

    Templates let you set up a shipment quickly and make sure all quotes arrive in the same format.

  • Fixed bid structure

    You make it mandatory how forwarders state their prices. That way all quotes can be compared like for like.

  • Best price at a glance

    eFrexx instantly shows all bids side by side and highlights the best price.

  • You decide who carries it

    The cheapest price does not always win. You award by your own criteria, such as quality or reliability.

  • Invited bidders only

    Only the forwarders you invite see your tender. Bidders cannot see each other.

  • Worldwide, every mode

    Road, rail, sea and air freight, each with its own input form.

How a freight tender works with eFrexx

  1. 1

    Define your needs

    You set origin and destination, time windows and all parameters in a clearly defined form. You make the bid structure mandatory, and forwarders must quote their prices in exactly that structure.

  2. 2

    Invite forwarders

    You invite your existing partners and, if needed, new providers. Bidders cannot see each other.

  3. 3

    Compare quotes

    eFrexx instantly shows all bids side by side, ready to compare, and highlights the best price. For annual tenders, you run through different award scenarios to make the best decision.

  4. 4

    Award the job

    You decide by your own criteria who carries the shipment. Every tender is fully documented.

All modes of transport

Each mode of transport has its own input form: for sea freight, eFrexx asks for the containers, for example, and for air freight, weight and volume. That way you get quotes you can compare like for like.
