Custom Software Development

Transport software

Transport software (TMS) is the program where a carrier or freight forwarder manages orders and trips, drivers and vehicles, CMR consignment notes, trip costs and invoices, and often a GPS fleet map as well. For a freight forwarder or small carrier with standard orders, ready-made cloud software costs 7 to 29 € per month. A custom system makes sense when trips, rates and costs need to follow Your rules, or when the system must connect to GPS, fuel cards and accounting: it costs 3 000-29 300 €, most often around 8 600 € (based on 98 of our quotes as of 14 August 2026).

What it includes

  • Orders and trips

    An order with loading and unloading at multiple points, a trip with a driver, vehicle, trailer and status.

  • GPS map

    Where each vehicle is now and where it has been, with arrival and departure recorded at each point.

  • CMR and documents

    The CMR consignment note, loading photos and proof of delivery linked to the trip.

  • Cost per trip

    Fuel, road tolls, per diems and repairs linked to the trip and vehicle, with profit calculated per trip.

  • Deadlines

    Reminders for annual technical inspections, insurance, vignettes and the driver card, plus downloading data from the tachograph.

  • Invoice from the trip

    The invoice is generated from the trip itself, in euro, while all unpaid invoices by customer are shown on one screen.

How the process works

  1. 1The dispatcher accepts the booking, creates a trip and selects a driver, vehicle and trailer.
  2. 2The driver sees the trip on their phone, photographs the CMR when loading and unloading, and the trip is tracked on the map.
  3. 3After delivery, the costs are assigned to the trip, and the invoice is generated from it with one click.

In brief: ready-made TMS or custom-built

Saitami's transport system manages trips, trucks and drivers, CMRs, expenses and invoices according to your rules, with a driver app and client portal. Ready-made cloud TMS platforms (from 7 to 29 € per month) cover standard freight forwarding, but not your contracts, rates and reports.

A custom system makes sense for a carrier with its own fleet when You want to know how much each trip and each truck has earned: fuel from the fuel card, road tolls, the driver's per diems and repairs should be linked to the trip automatically, rates should follow Your rules, and data should flow into accounting without re-entry.

Ready-made transport software

Prices are from the websites as of 17 October 2026. GPS tracking and tachograph analysis are available as separate services, usually charged per vehicle per month.

Compare what is included in the price: number of users, eCMR, invoices, GPS and accounting integrations. A custom system costs 3 000-29 300 € as a one-off payment, with no per-user fee.

Deadlines the software needs to remember

A carrier's work involves deadlines where missing one means a fine. The system keeps them linked to the vehicle and the driver and sends timely reminders:

  • Tachograph: data from the driver card must be downloaded at least every 28 days, and data from the vehicle unit at least every 90 days, under Regulation (EU) No 581/2010.
  • Driver card, driving licence, professional competence (code 95) and medical certificate: the expiry date of each.
  • Annual technical inspection, third-party liability insurance, comprehensive insurance and CMR insurance for each vehicle.
  • Vignette and road toll for the road network in Bulgaria and the countries along the route.
  • Mobility Package: posted-driver declarations for the countries where the drivers work.
  • CMR for every international transport, on paper or electronically (eCMR).

Profit per trip

The most common question a transport company owner asks is how much the truck has earned this month. The answer lies in the costs per trip: fuel, road tolls, per diems, repairs and depreciation, all assigned to the trip and vehicle, compared with the trip price. When fuel card and road toll data arrive as a file each month, the system allocates them to trips automatically, and the report showing "profit per trip, per truck, per driver" is generated without Excel.

Passenger transport and transfers

Transport is not just about freight. For transfer companies, we built the websites for AGA Transfer and Maybach Transfers, including transfer booking, and for taxis, the dispatch platform we showcase in the EnTaxi demo. There, a trip is a customer booking with an address, time and price, which the driver accepts from their phone.

What we have not done so far

As of 17 October 2026, we still do not have a freight carrier running a system built by us: the TransportOS demo uses sample data. We have not connected a system to a tachograph, fuel card or specific GPS service; if yours provides a file or connection, we check it before giving a price. eCMR is described in a proposal, not in a live system.

Timeline and price

A system for a transport company costs 3 000-29 300 €, most often around 8 600 €, according to our proposals; support costs 100-350 € per month and is optional. You start with trips, drivers and invoices, then add GPS, trip costs and deadlines.

What you gain

The fleet on one map

The dispatcher sees all vehicles without calling the drivers.

Profit per trip

You can see what each trip cost and what it generated.

Never miss a deadline

Tachograph, inspections and insurance, with reminders sent on time.

How we get started

  1. 01

    You describe the project

    A few sentences about what you need are enough.

  2. 02

    We come back with questions and a price

    We ask 2-3 specific questions and tell you the price range.

  3. 03

    We build a demo

    For a website, store or software system, we build a demo made for you.

  4. 04

    We send a proposal

    A written proposal with the exact price. We meet only to discuss the solution.

Frequently asked questions

Transport software: €3,000-€29,300, typically around €8,600. The exact price is included in the written proposal.

It depends on the scope, which we set out in the proposal. For comparison, here are examples from our portfolio: Pelikan DTM: since April 2026, continuously developed, Elite Call Center: 6 months, LiftexPro: 8 months.

Yours. We hand over the source code and data to you.

If you wish, we can maintain the project for €100-€350 per month. We specify what maintenance includes in the quote.

Ready-made Bulgarian TMS systems cost from 7 to 29 € per month (Cargo Manage) or are available by individual quote (Zeron Transport). A custom system for a carrier with its own fleet costs 3 000-29 300 €, most often around 8 600 €.

The demo shows the fleet on a GPS map. We have not yet connected a system to a specific GPS service, tachograph or fuel card: we check what file or connection yours provides and include it in the quote.

Under Regulation (EU) No 581/2010, data must be downloaded from the driver card at least every 28 days and from the vehicle unit at least every 90 days. The system reminds you of both deadlines by driver and by vehicle.

Ready-made TMS systems such as Cargo Manage support it. In our case, eCMR is specified in a quote, not in a deployed system; a photo of the paper CMR taken on the driver’s phone and attached to the trip works in the demo.

Yes, that is the main reason to build a custom system: fuel, road tolls, per diems and repairs are linked to the trip and vehicle, and the report is broken down by trip, truck and driver.

For passenger transport, yes: the websites of AGA Transfer and Maybach Transfers, as well as the taxi dispatch platform. We do not yet have a freight carrier using a system launched by us; we show the TransportOS demo.
