Get the best out of your network and ask carriers to share Real-time visibility data

Have a look at our Visibility Control Center with consent management. The Visibility Control Center is a crucial step, because it will help us to create and maintain trust between you, your carriers and Visibility Hub. High quality data is essential for you to monitor your supply chain in real time. With carriers actively deciding to share data, the quality of Real-time visibility will increase, giving you an even better overview over your supply chain.

What does data sharing mean?

Sharing Real-time visibility data means that an allocated vehicle will provide real-time data for a given transport.

When an allocated license plate is connected to Visibility Hub, our system will check if consent was given to share data with you. Once this is verified, GPS data will be shared for the specific transport.

Your visibility control center

Under the tab “Carrier Network” you see all the Transport companies working with you. Here you can also invite carriers to join your network.

The consent status shows which carriers have accepted or declined to share data with you during a transport.

Accepted

The carrier has agreed to share real-time visibility data from his network with you during a specific transport.

Declined

The carrier has actively declined sharing real-time visibility data with you.

If a carrier has declined the data sharing, you will see this in your transport network. Also if a transport is executed by a carrier who declined data sharing, you will be informed about a data sharing issue, when the transport was supposed to start.

Note: If a carrier has accepted to share data but you still get a notification about a data sharing issue, there could be missing consent in the private transport network of the carrier. Ask your carrier to check the consent status of his carrier network.

If a carrier has declined the data sharing, reach out to the carrier directly and ask for the consent to be reactivated. This can be done by an admin user in just two clicks. (Find out if you are an admin)

Best practice

  • Check out your carrier network on a regular basis to make sure consent is accepted - and ask the same of your carriers.

  • Ask your carriers to make sure they have invited all their subcontractors they are using for your transports
