The competition in the European bulk market takes place predominantly in the forwarding businessal land transport. The bulks classical on air traffic are based as far as possible integrator-operate are due to the high degree of automation and the associated weight and volume borders not in the situation to be carried. Here integrator co-operation with established are received, in order to offer to the customers a broad spectrum of Dienstleistugen.
There is not a bulk traffic of the course in Germany no more. The managerial policy consisted of letting this market range without further investments run out since it was considered as high In favor of positive amounts covered it was held up to the Ausfirmierung in Bahntrans. After the sales of the Bahntrans to the Belgian ABX Logistics operate as far as possible with the truck carried.
This does not mean naturally that none bulk-operates on the rail takes place. Rather the course leaves the to the forwarding businesses, which use the course then in combined traffic or in classical single car traffic as carriers. Approximately 70% of the European Union of transportation (measured in tkm) take place over a distance of 150km and more and are thus in principle also bahnaffin. By the efficiency of single car traffic to increase the railways cargo AG concentrate in the context of the reorganization concept MORA C (market-focused offer cargo) on those approximately 320 big customers, who constitute 85 per cent of the conversions. Contrary to the e.g. French course SNCF, which completely stopped carload lot traffic, the railways cargo stress expressly the importance of this offer for the own enterprise. By the different meaning of the bulk business for the individual European course companies, the European-wide course dispatch is strongly limited however in the efficiency. From that approx. 3300 Speditionsbetrieben in Germany 47% offer their customer to bulk achievements, whereby 26% as an achievement emphasis see this. At similar numbers Dr. logistics study arrives in the 24% the forwarding business participant indicated to be active in general cargo traffic. 16% offer here national bulk-operate and 8% international bulk-operate on. There are serious differences with the capacity range to package and express delivery service. While the BSL study indicates an achievement emphasis for 11% of the enterprises, these are with the study only 4%. The KEP market particularly is in an expansion phase, but cannot be explained this significant difference not alone by a growth within a yearly. In principle only a very bad data situation is present for the development of the German small property market
The German transportation market is characterised by a strong representative office of small and medium-size enterprises (KMU). 23,200 enterprises are to be assigned by that approx. 128,000 transport enterprises in Germany to the middle class; the predominant number of 104.000 are small firms. This strong operational readiness level of KMU within the range of the carriers is to be seen also with that approx. 3300 Speditionsbetrieben. Only few enterprises are to be really assigned to the large-scale enterprises as company forwarding businesses and global Player.
The advantages of a usually owner-led KMUs are, by the close linkage between economic success and the line person, the flat hierarchies and a unit from entrepreneur (owner) and enterprise (person employed) in a strong innovation strength and flexibility, frequently which can be found, since new ideas in such organization forms are to be interspersed more easily. Linked with a proximity to the customer straight for logistics a crucial competition advantage results in relation to large company forwarding businesses. Thus the enterprises assign approx. to regional service quiet by Europeanizing the procurement and selling ways and by the intensified outsourcing of intelligent services preferably change themselves the activity spectrum to 37% of all transportation from classical forwarding businesses crucially. The change of the carrier, over the carrier and Logistikdienstleister to the logistics system development partner requires speed, IT-authority and an internationalization apart from the classical advantages of KMUs also. However a fastidious IT is frequently with a high financial requirement connected and an internationalization for many KMU with difficulty convertible - to technologies.
Since more jeher there were co-operation on horizontal level with transport enterprises in the form of correspondence relations. By the requirements of the market the Franchising became generally accepted as the closer union for certain industry segments. By such co-operation the advantages can opened by large-scale enterprises, which lie particularly in the European surface operational readiness level, and with the own competition advantages, which adaptability to customized desires, are combined. In the range more bulk-operate at least 10 co-operation developed (illustration 12), with which most fall back to the concept Franchising. Bulk-operate outside from specialized partial markets must to the competition with efficient large forwarding businesses place itself. But it applies particularly here that "the large ones do not eat the small ones will run over, but the faster ones the "
Since Franchising admits example by the two McDonald and Coca Cola in the middle of the 1950ger years became, the Franchising in many industries application finds. With transporting enterprises Franchising represents a possible co-operation form, in order to develop on horizontal level national and international nets to coordinate transportations and to develop and offer a central administered mark with uniform achievements.
The American definitions of Franchising are very broadly formulated and collide after European and German understanding particularly with the problem around the illusory independence. The definition usual in the German literature from the year 1968 neglects the obligations of the Franchisegebers, since at this time potential criminal behavior was not considered probably yet. The iurisdiction gave its definition for Franchising to 1986 in the so-called ice man judgement. The definition of the European Franchising Federation (EFF) contains 5 substantial quintessential points. Therefore Franchising (1) is a marketing system for services and/or technologies (2) on cooperative basis of legally independent enterprises. Contents of the Franchisingvertrages are (3) the right to use at the mark, technical know-how, organizational methods and concepts and (4) the current technical and economical support as well as training by the Franchisegeber. For this (5) the Franchisegeber receives a direct or indirect payment. It is crucial that the Franchisenehmer acts further in the own name and for his own account and must thus always ask oneself, whether the economic use repays those which can be paid exceeds. Particularly with Eastern Europe traffic the danger exists that Franchisenehmer do not work by to small feed into the system profitably. In order to retain the quality of the mark, also the Franchisegeber is to be recognized here demanded this if possible before conclusion of a Franchisevertrages.
offers the Franchising the advantage of an entrance to a finished distribution system with an imported mark and a uniform appearance. Thus itself the forwarding business can on its authority, which organization of the goods transport, and marketing and the advertising measures concentrate to the system center to deliver. Additionally the Franchisenehmer is relieved by the fact that the system center the care and advancement of the IT-systems, which takes over legal contracting and also as required the personnel development. Thus the financial requirement of a KMUs on the side can be lowered, which however by the strong mark are substantially facilitated for procurement of capital on the other side. Both of the Franchisegeber and of - taker should be paid attention however to the fact that despite the legal independence no separate organization of the enterprises takes place, but a co-ordinated sequence organisation is established.
In the following problem fields in bulk traffic are systematically seized, regarded in part more near and pointed out development tendencies.
