TRANSPORT (DOMESTIC / EUROPEAN / INTERNATIONAL)

Take control of your transport performance, without dependence on your carriers.

Domestic, European, international: one consistent standard of management.

I support the management of your transport operations to structure your strategy, secure your providers and optimize your performance across Europe.

Your company remains the sole principal and direct contracting party with the carriers; I do not act as a freight forwarder.

Transport Management - domestic, European, international - controlled performance - STRANEXO

When to get involved?

The signals showing your transport performance is reaching its limits.

These situations often build up gradually, as your flows multiply across several geographic scales — and become harder to see clearly from outside Europe.

📈 Your transport costs are drifting

Despite one-off renegotiations, margin gains remain limited and temporary.

🌍 You operate at several scales

Domestic, European, international: your flows are managed without a consolidated view.

🤝 Your carrier panel is no longer structured

Providers have multiplied without selection criteria or regular evaluation.

⚠️ Your operational risks are poorly controlled

Safety, regulatory compliance: these topics are still handled case by case.

In most cases, transport performance doesn't decline because of a bad carrier.

It results from management that isn't sufficiently structured across the whole of your transport flows.

My analysis

Four pillars to take control of your transport performance

Every company has its own way of running transport. My role is to understand how to structure, secure and support the management of your operations, whatever their geographic scale.

🤝 Strategy & carrier sourcing

I contribute to benchmarking and structuring your carrier panel at every scale (domestic, European, international), drawing on a network of agents and carriers built over the course of my career. I support the definition of selection criteria, consultations, tenders and rate negotiation.

🛡 Security & transport compliance

I run security and regulatory compliance audits of transport partners, notably as part of AEO (Authorized Economic Operator) certification efforts. I put that same rigor to work securing your transport chain. I also help you define your operational transport standards and track non-conformities and the related action plans.

📊 Performance & management

Before TMS platforms were even common, I designed my own transport management tool: status tracking, costs, door-to-door lead times, carbon footprint, load factor. It let me manage 150 to 200 files a year with the rigor of a professional system. Controlled performance starts with a method, not a piece of software.

⚙️ Continuous improvement & digitalization

I map and standardize your transport processes, identify digitalization opportunities and formalize your business requirements for your tooling projects (TMS in particular) — an approach I have led myself by designing my own management tool.

I don't analyze each topic in isolation.

I study how sourcing, security, performance and digitalization interact across your transport operations, whatever their geographic scale.

Scope of intervention

Expertise dedicated to the whole of your transport operations

Depending on your needs, I work in particular on:

sourcing and structuring your carrier panel (domestic, European, international);
consultations, tenders and rate negotiation;
security and regulatory compliance of your transport providers;
managing costs, lead times and carbon footprint;
optimizing the load factor of your shipments;
mapping and standardizing your transport processes;
defining your operational transport standards and tracking non-conformities;
identifying the needs behind an evolution of your management tools (TMS in particular).

One principle stays constant across all of these topics: you keep control of the contractual relationship with your carriers.

My approach

A pragmatic method, built for your transport performance

I favor a pragmatic approach, grounded in the operational reality of your transport flows.

My role is to surface the levers that will let you structure, secure and support the management of your operations, whatever their geographic scale.

Based on that analysis, I build a realistic, prioritized action plan with your teams, tailored to your objectives.

My role is to support and inform your decisions — never to make them for you.

Frequently asked questions

What I'm asked most often

Do you act as a freight forwarder?

No.

I work only in advisory and management support. Your company remains the sole principal and direct contracting party with the carriers.

Do you only work internationally?

No.

I work on your domestic, European and international transport operations, depending on your needs.

What's the difference with International Flow Optimization?

Transport focuses specifically on your transport operations, at every geographic scale. International Flow Optimization covers the whole of your international flows (purchasing, Incoterms, customs, Supply Chain), beyond transport alone.

What's the difference with Fractional Supply Chain / Logistics / Transport Leadership?

Transport is a targeted assignment aimed at analyzing a situation, identifying improvement levers and supporting their implementation.

Fractional Supply Chain / Logistics / Transport Leadership consists of supporting the management of your transport function over the long run, a few days a month, by your side.
