Valuation methods :

• Transport capacity: Check that the service provider has the necessary capacity to handle your transport volumes. 
• Geographical coverage: Make sure the carrier can cover the geographical areas relevant to your operations. 
• Technology and innovation: Evaluate the supplier's use of technology, such as transport tracking and management systems (TMS). 
• Sustainability: Consider carriers' sustainable practices, particularly in terms of reducing CO2 emissions and complying with environmental regulations. Also ensure that carriers adopt fair labor practices and promote the well-being of their employees.
