Alpega Partners with TransFollow to Digitize Road Transport via Integrated eCMR Solution

Vienna, Austria , 26^th of May 

Alpega, a leading provider of transport execution solutions, today announced a strategic partnership with TransFollow, the European standard for digital transport technology. This collaboration integrates TransFollow’s market-leading eCMR (electronic Consignment Note) technology directly into Alpega’s platform of solutions, providing shippers and carriers with a seamless, paperless workflow. 

As the industry faces increasing pressure to improve efficiency and meet sustainability goals, the traditional paper-based CMR waybill has become a significant bottleneck. By leveraging TransFollow’s robust technology, Alpega users can now digitize the entire transport contract lifecycle, from issuance to digital signature and automated archiving, within their existing Alpega environment. 

“Digitizing road transport documentation has moved from competitive edge to operational baseline," said Michael Böckle, SVP Sales Strategy, Alliances & Presales at Alpega. "Our partnership with TransFollow takes paper out of the workflow entirely - customers see up to 50% lower administrative costs, real-time shipment visibility, and a meaningful reduction in their environmental footprint”. 

A New Standard for Transport Execution  

The integrated eCMR solution offers immediate, measurable ROI by addressing the core pain points of road transport: 

• 75% Higher Efficiency: Documents are processed and shared instantly through a central digital archive, eliminating the risk of lost, damaged, or incomplete paperwork. 
• Real-Time Visibility & Geolocation: Stakeholders receive instant status updates and geolocated timestamps at arrival and delivery. 
• Accelerated Cash Flow: Digital Proof of Delivery (ePOD) is available immediately upon signature, allowing for faster invoicing and reduced Days Sales Outstanding (DSO). 
• Sustainability Leadership: Digital adoption across the network contributes to saving more than 900,000 trees annually. 

Seamless Integration for Carriers  

A key focus of the partnership is "zero friction" for the carrier network. Drivers can manage missions through the TransFollow Drive app or via popular messaging platforms like WhatsApp and Telegram. This flexibility ensures that even small subcontractors can participate in the digital workflow without the need for complex software installations. 

“Many transport companies still manage critical freight information across disconnected systems, manual processes, and country-specific requirements,” said Moritz Rössler, Manager Sales International, TransFollow. 

“By combining TransFollow’s expertise in secure digital freight data exchange with Alpega’s TMS, customers gain a far more practical route to modernising day-to-day operations without adding complexity for drivers, carriers, or back-office teams. 

“This collaboration will help the industry move closer to fully connected cross-border transport, where information can be shared faster, more accurately and with far less administrative burden.” 

TransFollow's eCMR solution integrated within Alpega TMS is fully compliant with the UNECE eCMR Protocol and prepared for eFTI regulations, ensuring bank-grade security (ISO 27001) and GDPR compliance across all transactions.
