Regulatory News:
Clasquin (Paris:ALCLA), the overseas forwarding and logistics
expert, has signed a strategic partnership with Wakeo, the leader
in visibility, to speed up its move to digital technology.
Together, Clasquin and Wakeo are committed to offering
concrete solutions to the operational challenges of the French
mid-tier business’s customers, by providing real-time visibility on
all international transport flows (sea, air, road, rail …).
“We are happy to have Wakeo as our partner. Since its creation,
this innovative Tech company has been committed to improving data
reliability and predictability, which are decisive factors in the
operational optimisation of our customers’ Supply Chain. Clasquin
and Wakeo teams, under the leadership of their founding managers,
share a common business vision and wish to move forward together.
This is a great partnership that we are initiating. It is thanks to
this kind of collaboration, and to teams working with shared
ambition, that we will be able to complete our offer of
high-value-added solutions to customers,” said Hugues Morin, Group
CEO, Clasquin.
Clasquin aims to use data to drive customer operating excellence
and satisfaction, and thus enable its transport experts to be more
proactive in their decision-making. “In a context of accelerating
digital transition, Clasquin has chosen to partner with Wakeo in a
pragmatic innovation approach, genuinely geared to generating
operational value while enriching data and ensuring a fast time to
market. This is a major step in Clasquin’s digital transformation,
designed to leverage data to improve productivity and create value
for our customers”, noted Frédéric Serra, Group CIO, Clasquin.
Wakeo, for its part, will benefit from Clasquin’s
business-specific knowledge in 21 countries as well as the
partnership’s global scope to broaden its connectivity. “While
international transport relies on the coordination between multiple
operators with fragmented information, this global partnership will
strengthen the international network of Wakeo which connects to
hundreds of sources. The more information sources we connect, the
greater the relevance of our data models and the faster we can
deploy our solutions to generate value at the heart of the supply
chain”, commented Julien Cote, Wakeo’s co-founder and CEO.
By aggregating information from transport providers and
enriching it with independent data (real-time satellite positions,
seaport and airport data, IoT sensors, etc.) and intelligent
proprietary algorithms, Wakeo enables to anticipate issues in the
multimodal transportation chain as soon as possible.
“Data enrichment and data science are at the core of our
strategy to go beyond historical data quality limitations. We are
currently at a turning point in terms of the market’s technological
maturity which enables operators like Clasquin to put data,
combined with business-specific expertise, at the heart of their
business model transformation”, explained Loïc Marzin, Wakeo’s
co-founder and CTO.
Wakeo and Clasquin are engaging into an ambitious long-term
partnership built around a shared vision: investing in technology
to be one-step ahead of the market standard and offer optimum
responsiveness to customers, through new high-value-added services.
The aim is to support their development against a backdrop of
disruption within global logistics chains (Covid, US-China trade
war, Brexit, etc.), calling for greater control and anticipation of
risk.
