Multimodal transportation
SERVICE
Multimodal and intermodal transportation
Multimodal transportation — always involves the use of several modes of transport — sea, road, rail or air. It is important not only to combine these stages, but also to ensure full control of the entire route.
The multimodal model allows you to transfer the entire logistics chain to a single operator. You enter into a single contract, and all coordination — from planning to final delivery — is carried out centrally.
- Single contract for the entire route
- Centralized control at every stage
- Optimization of costs and delivery times
- Minimization of operational risks

Multimodal and intermodal transportation
For complex logistics routes with several modes of transport, it is important not only to combine the stages, but also to ensure the manageability of the entire process. That is why two formats of transportation organization are used in international logistics: multimodal and intermodal.
Both models allow for the combination of different transport solutions in one route, however, the key difference lies in the liability structure and contractual relationships.
What is multimodal transportation?
Multimodal delivery is a model in which one operator takes full responsibility for the entire logistics chain. The client concludes a single contract, and the process is coordinated centrally, from route planning to final cargo handover.
- One responsible operator for the entire route
- Single transport document
- Centralized control at every stage
- Minimizing bureaucracy and operational risks
What is intermodal transportation?
An intermodal scheme also involves the use of several modes of transport, but each stage is served by a separate carrier. Accordingly, several contracts are concluded, and responsibility is divided between the operators.
- Multiple contracts instead of one
- Division of liability between carriers
- More complex coordination and control
The main stages of multimodal transportation
- Analysis of cargo characteristics and development of the optimal route
- Preparation of accompanying and customs documents
- Delivery to the transport hub and loading
- Transshipment between modes of transport without changing containers
- Trunk transportation with monitoring
- Final delivery and closing of documents
Benefits of multimodal logistics for business
- Cost predictability
- Shortening delivery times
- Single point of responsibility
- Reducing logistics risks
Possible risks of the intermodal model
- Difficulty in coordinating between operators
- Delays when transferring between modes of transport
- Increased administrative costs
Result
Multimodal transportation allows you to transfer the entire logistics process to a single operator, reduce risks and simplify the management of international deliveries. The intermodal scheme requires more active participation of the customer and coordination of several carriers. Отправить отзыв Есть результаты с переводом
