Logistics Warehouse and Supply Chain Awards 2026 | 7 Different locations use different workflows, transport requests are coordinated by email or phone, and important information may be spread across various avenues of communication. This makes it difficult for companies to compare prices, track statuses, identify bottlenecks, or make informed decisions. carmovia addresses this growing challenge by creating a central digital layer for vehicle logistics, serving as each client’s central point of contact and contractual counterpart. Unlike traditional marketplace models, transport requests, partner management, tracking, documentation, and reporting can all be managed within one TMS, in addition to damage management and transport insurance. Customers can utilise carmovia’s verified transport partner network and also integrate their own existing transport partners. This is an essential feature, and one of carmovia’s biggest differentiators, as many companies already have established logistics relationships that work well. Rather than replacing them, carmovia digitises and orchestrates them. Furthermore, carmovia can be entirely adapted to meet the individual needs of different customers and organisational structures. Client companies can create setups for multiple locations, branches, legal entities, or user groups, with different users, roles, and permissions. This means that the platform is not only perfect for single locations, but also for larger automotive groups with complex internal structures and decentralised teams. The platform is continuously developed, with regular improvements rolling out, in complete alignment with customer needs and operational insights. For the remainder of 2026 and the coming years ahead, one of the carmovia team’s main priorities is the further development of AIsupported workflows and agent systems within the platform. Vehicle logistics creates a large amount of operational data every day, and carmovia is working hard to structure this data in such a way that makes it usable for analysis, optimisation, and future AI-supported decision-making. The team does not aim to use AI as a buzzword, but as a practical support layer for operational teams. “This can make vehicle logistics faster, more transparent, and easier to manage, especially as transport volumes, capacity constraints, and customer expectations continue to increase,” Umut concluded. “We want carmovia to become an increasingly intelligent operating system for vehicle logistics: a platform that not only digitises processes, but also supports teams with data-driven insights, AIsupported agents, and scalable workflows across Europe.” Contact: Umut Dasdemir E-mail: [email protected] Company: Carmovia GmbH Web Address: www.carmovia.com Located in Hamburg, carmovia was built to solve a very specific challenge impacting the automotive industry: while many processes such as lead management, vehicle stock management, financing, and customer communication have become increasingly digital, vehicle logistics is still often handled manually through emails, phone calls, spreadsheets, and fragmented workflows. In this complex, inefficient environment, carmovia was created to make vehicle logistics digital, transparent, and scalable. At its core, carmovia is a SaaS platform and digital infrastructure solution aimed towards professional vehicle logistics. The platform specialises in vehicle transport across Europe, including transports by driver and by truck, single vehicle movements, consolidated transports, full loads, multi-stop routes, and large-scale fleet or volume projects. It provides a Transport Management System specifically designed for vehicle transport, enabling companies to plan, book, execute, track, document, and analyse vehicle movements through one central digital system. At present, carmovia operates in 22 European countries and works with a network of more than 2,000 verified transport partners. Together, this essential network unites transport demand with available capacity more efficiently. Instead of treating each transport request as an isolated transaction, it analyses transport requirements, identifies suitable routes, and supports the bundling of vehicle movements. This allows existing transport capacity to be used more effectively, which is especially important in a market heavily impacted by driver shortages, limited availability, and empty runs. “The European vehicle logistics market is facing several challenges at once,” Umut explained. “Driver shortages, limited transport capacity, rising costs, regional imbalances, and empty runs all put pressure on efficiency. At the same time, automotive companies expect greater transparency, faster processing, and more scalable logistics solutions. By bundling vehicle movements, improving route planning, and making transport capacities more efficiently usable, we help to reduce manual coordination, avoid unnecessary empty runs, and support more effective transport execution across Europe.” One of the industry’s greatest current obstacles is fragmentation. Many vehicle logistics processes have grown originally over time. Vehicle logistics is not simply about moving a car from one place to another; it is a complex process that requires the meticulous coordination of countless moving parts. carmovia has emerged as an innovative SaaS-based TMS making car moving fast and simple through a central solution that combines every element of vehicle transport logistics into one scalable system.
