Intermodal Transportation
Separate contracts are made for each mode of transportation, and different companies are involved. Responsibility is limited to the transport process of each company. This offers more flexibility in negotiations but makes management more complex.
Multimodal Transportation
All transportation processes are managed under a single contract, usually by one company. It is easier to manage, with responsibility lying with a single carrier, and it is generally faster. However, it typically offers less flexibility than intermodal transportation.
Advantages of Intermodal Transportation
Flexibility
Offers the possibility to work with different carriers for each transportation mode.
Cost Advantage
Achieves savings by choosing cost-effective transportation modes.
Environmentally Friendly
It offers the opportunity to integrate methods such as rail and sea transportation, which produce less carbon emissions.
Cargo Security
As a result of transporting in containers, goods are transferred without handling, which reduces the risk of damage.
Variety of Options
Provides ease in transitioning between different modes of transportation based on needs.
Advantages of Multimodal Transportation
Easy Management
With a single transportation contract and carrier, operational processes becomes simpler.
Single Point of Responsibility
Since a single company is responsible for the entire process, solving any issues that arise is easier.
Effective Monitoring and Control
Managing the entire process from one point allows for better tracking and reporting.
Time Savings
Offers fast delivery solutions with alternative routes and mode options.
Quick Delivery
Managing all processes through one company provides efficiency.
Less Bureaucracy
No need for separate agreements or planning for each mode of transportation.
