Market Definition
Freight transport management incorporates forming various strategies for increasing the efficiency of freight and commercial transport efficiency. Freight transport management focuses on reducing the shipper costs while considering social costs such as congestion or pollution impacts. It helps the shippers to use the right mode of transportation. For instance, rail and water transport are highly efficient for long distances as compared to the use of trucks for the same. It helps in improving the routing and scheduling in order to increase load factors and reduce freight vehicle mileage. It helps implement fleet management programs that help use optimally sized vehicles for each trip, reduce vehicle mileage, and ensure that fleet vehicles are operated and maintained in ways that reduce external costs.
Freight transport management is used for various modes of transportation such as roadways, railways, marine, and airways. The freight movement done through the path of roads is termed under the segment. It is the most common type of transportation mode as it requires a single customs document process. Railway mode of transportation is highly fuel-efficient and can be termed as a 'green' mode of transportation. Marine shipments are used for the movement of bulk commodities such as coal, agri-products, iron ore, and wet bulk products such as crude oil and gas. Airways are the fastest mode of transportation and are highly used to achieve 'just-in-time' (JIT) inventory replenishment.
Freight Transportation Management Market Dynamics
This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail as below:
- High Benefits Offered By Freight Transportation Management
Over the years, it has become extremely necessary to have a highly efficient supply chain. This requirement is fulfilled by freight transportation management. Freight transportation management system helps the enterprises in moving the products from one destination to another in a cost-effective, reliable, and efficient manner. The system provides higher visibility and better analysis of data, thus increasing the growth of the global freight transportation management market.
- Increasing Demand for Rail Freight Transports
Rail freight transport utilizes railways for the transportation of cargo on land. It is used for transporting various cargo such as chemicals, raw construction material, agriculture, automotive, energy (coal, oil, and wind turbines), and forest productions. The railways can transport heavy cargo quickly through the railroads. Railways are one of the most highly used forms of transportation and have a huge built-up infrastructure around the world. The increasing use of railways for transportation increases the growth of freight transportation management for managing rail freight transportation.
- High Use of Freight Transportation Management in Roadways
Increasing digitalization has seen the transformation in various industries and has given birth to e-commerce. The growth in e-commerce has made it necessary for the companies to make their supply chain highly efficient, reduce the transit time and provide the products to the customers without any delay. This has increased the flow of domestic transportation through roadways, and a large number of trucks are being used for the same. The increasing growth in roadways technology is augmenting the growth of the global freight transportation management market.
- Congestion Associated With Trade Routes
As traffic volumes and congestion grow on roadways and waterways, freight and transport service operators grow to be increasingly challenged to keep reliable schedules. This affects supply chains and truck-dependent businesses, each of which is of growing significance for both public coverage and private region operators. Moreover, several accidents on roads or oil spills at sea can act as an unexpected challenge for the transportation systems, which makes it difficult for the system to manage. Recent COVID-19 has also halted several logistics operations causing severe damage to entire supply chain operations. These parameters act as a major restraint for the growth of the global freight transportation management market.
- Government Restrictions and Regulations On Trade
International trade has seen several restrictions and changing regulations due to the U.S. and China trade war and COVID-19 pandemic. Cross-border transportation gets limited, and the cost increases, which are not able to foresee by the transportation management system and leads to inefficiency in supply chain and inventory thus acting as a major restraint for the global freight transportation management market.
Post COVID-19 Impact on Freight Transportation Management Market
COVID-19 created a major impact on the freight transportation management market as almost every country has opted for the shutdown for every production facility except the ones dealing in producing the essential goods.

The only business which is dealing in this pandemic situation is the essential services that are allowed to open and run the processes.
The growth of the freight transportation management market is rising due to the government policies to boost international trade post Covid-19. Also the benefits offered by freight transportation management for optimizing costs and routs is rising the demand for freight transportation management in the market. However, factors such as congestion associated with trade routes and trade restrictions between some nations are restraining the market growth. The shutdown of production facilities during the pandemic situation has had a significant impact on the market.
Manufacturers are making various strategic decisions to bounce back post-COVID-19. The players are conducting multiple research and development activities to improve the technology involved in the freight transportation management. With this, the companies will bring advanced and accurate solutions to the market. In addition, the government initiatives to boost international trade has led to the market's growth.
