Here's why our users love BigMile

“I think it’s still fairly unique that we have such openness with our logistics service provider. After all, sustainable transport only makes sense if they also participate. It’s a social problem and the responsibility of the whole chain.”

“I had a really positive onboarding experience with BigMile. Some software companies make a big deal out of providing extra support, after the initial training, but I never experienced that with BigMile. Whenever I had a question or needed help with something, I could call or email my BigMile business consultant and I’d get a response within 24 hours, allowing me to move forward.”

“We wanted to reduce our CO2 emissions and aim for a Lean & Green Star, but we weren’t tracking these emissions at all. BigMile gave us the calculations and reports we needed. Thanks to this, we’re now on our way to our third star.”

“BigMile helps us by modelling the scenarios and the impact on CO2 emissions. We are now investigating the possibility of transporting such cargo by rail instead.”

“Many of our clients are multinationals. As of 2023, these organizations will have to report on their environmental and social impact and start paying CO2 taxes. In fact, more and more clients and end customers are already asking us for CO2 reports. Thanks to BigMile, we are prepared for this.”

“The consultancy firm used BigMile’s Carbon Analytics to calculate and analyse CO2 and then extracted the right data for BSH. BigMile has good data-sharing functionality that allows us to exchange data with each other securely.”

"Thanks to the integration with BigMile, we can calculate the CO2 emissions for all routes taken by a container and trace them back to a customer order for the logistics service providers. Providing insights into carbon emissions is increasingly becoming a condition for doing business together."

“What I do find is that by working with BigMile, we are able to provide the advice and everything the client might need from us to make a good decision, we can make that clear.”

“BigMile’s graphical user interface with interactive analysis gives us insights into which steps we can take to save CO2. For example, it became clear to us that we were causing a lot of CO2 emissions for some customers by sending them a large number of small shipments, resulting in high CO2 emissions per kilo or per shipment. This was not always necessary, so we’ve started a dialogue with some of those customers to reduce the shipment frequency.”

“BigMile is fed with data from iBarge as the basis for its calculations. These are then forwarded to the relevant charterer’s back-office system via the BigMile Emission API. We help the inland shipping sector by bringing together multiple data streams in a single software solution. This gives charterers the right tools to make emissions transparent and comparable.”

"We are among the top 3% worldwide in terms of sustainability assessments. And that's also because we have our CO2 management well in order now. So, where we initially stood at zero, we have quickly developed a very robust CO2 framework. We can now map everything out accurately thanks to BigMile’s platform."

“We have now actively asked our own subcontractors for CO2 information, with the advice that if you don't have anything yet and you can still choose, why not check if BigMile fits well. Then we can just link to each other using the Data Sharing functionality of BigMile.”

“Since we do a lot of work for multinationals, we felt it was very important to work with a party that is accredited according to the GLEC method. This is a globally recognized methodology for measuring greenhouse gas emissions from different modes of transport.”

“In our own portal we can look at all the carriers and gain insights into our total transport carbon footprint. For example, we can see whether it is more economical to bundle a shipment and/or to move it to a specific day. Our salespeople then use this information to continuously encourage our customers to place their orders more consciously.”

“At Vonk & Co, we need a total overview, whereas BSH wants visibility into its own brands and specific customers. We send all the order data to BigMile, including from other clients. BigMile can then share the relevant data with BSH”.

“Visibility is becoming increasingly important to provide insight into CO2 emissions and influence the supply chain partners, both downstream and upstream. What we ultimately want is for our customers to be able to weigh up their deliveries based not only on costs and delivery time, but also on CO2 emissions.”

"The integration with BigMile enables us to calculate the CO2 emissions for each purchase order at item level and visualize them in our application. It is then possible to trace the emissions back to the item level. This means that the carbon footprint is also directly available for printing on a quotation or an invoice, or even on in-store shelf labels."

“BigMile’s tooling is exactly what we were looking for: a digital solution that allows us to translate hard data and what-if scenarios at shipment level directly into insights and action.”

“BigMile’s graphical user interface with interactive analysis gives us insights into which steps we can take to save CO2. For example, it became clear to us that we were causing a lot of CO2 emissions for some customers by sending them a large number of small shipments, resulting in high CO2 emissions per kilo or per shipment. This was not always necessary, so we’ve started a dialogue with some of those customers to reduce the shipment frequency.”

“Using BigMile Carbon Analytics, we can calculate the CO2 emissions of our supply chain partners’ intermodal transport movements. Higher reliability of our measurements will help us decide how best to reduce and offset our emissions. We actively share the information with our supply chain partners and engage with them on how we can work together to achieve lower emissions. We strongly believe it is more effective to set up projects to address carbon emissions within our supply chain together with our partners.”
