WarehouseBook: Creating a new market by offering an unused warehouse space to cargo drivers on the go

Descripción del proyecto

Hacerse cargo de las necesidades de almacenamiento de las empresas de transporte

Imagine una opción como Airbnb pero pensada para espacios de depósito y almacenamiento. Este es un modelo emergente que tiene como objetivo satisfacer la creciente necesidad del comercio electrónico y el transporte de mercancías. En la actualidad, solamente se puede acceder a espacios de depósito y almacenamiento a través de contactos personales. El proyecto financiado con fondos europeos WarehouseBook busca revertir esta tendencia. Creará una base de datos en línea en la que los planificadores logísticos puedan reservar un almacén para que los transportadores depositen allí las mercancías. La base de datos presentará almacenes, con su oferta y el tipo de servicio. También permitirá a las empresas de transporte alquilar un almacén donde el transportista pueda descargar la mercancía. Con la coordinación de la empresa eslovena IDL Logistika, este proyecto reunirá más de 10 000 almacenes y proveedores de transporte de la Unión Europea.

Objetivo

WarehouseBook is a logistics' booking.com for warehouses and storage spaces, creating new market on EU level.
In modern societies, logistics has become one of the most important economical sub-systems. With e-commerce and cargo transport rising, a lean manufacturing and on-demand supply chain delivery, there is the abundance of warehouses and storage spaces. But still, this huge warehouse network is reachable only through personal contacts, in known environment. There simply is no online database or platform where logistics planners would be able to book a warehouse for transporters to deliver the goods, but it has to be done personally, and weeks in advance.
This causes issues both for drivers and for warehouse providers. Drivers and their office support simply don't have a plan B if delays occur. If driver comes to the delivery location after hours, he/she often needs to spend the night and come again in the morning, which produces further delays along the delivery route, more costs, and penalties. On the other hand, warehouses are almost never fully occupied, and are continuously missing opportunities for additional income.
WarehouseBook is a booking.com for such warehouses, enabling them streamlined process of listing their offer and type, market exposure and admin automation, while on the other side enabling logistic planners and drivers to easily rent a warehouse, unload the cargo, and continue on the delivery route, while the warehouse service can make the last-mile delivery to final recipient.
IDL Logistika is an awarded industry insider cooperating with 90% of European transport providers. Its key markets are Slovenia, Croatia and Czech Republic, and it organizes transport throughout Europe. WarehouseBook will enable the company to bring 10.000+ EU warehouses and transport providers together to make business that otherwise wouldn't exist! For the company this would result in 23 mio
revenue in 5 years.
