    Truckage companies need continuous and up-to-date information about their business processes in order to respond quickly to customers’ needs and problems emerging during transport processes. Therefore a reliable and user-friendly communication system is required, which improves the relationship between drivers and dispatchers. The project ”Mobile Spedition im Web (SpiW)**” presented here, develops a mobile communication system, which focuses on the driver/dispatcher interaction. The main goals are integration with legacy logistics software and the possible use of new telematics and communication techniques. To achieve these goals, a component based architecture allows the later change and extension of components, making it possible to add new features to the system as they become available. A distributed workflow server supports the adjustment of business processes to individual needs

    This paper presents a communication architecture to provide an optimized support for communication within a logistic company. Truckage companies need continuous and up-to-date information about their business processes in order to respond quickly to customers' needs and problems emerging during transport processes. A reliable and user-friendly communication system is required, which improves the relationship between drivers and dispatchers. The main goals are integration with legacy logistics software and the possible use of new telematics and communication techniques. To achieve the goals above, a component based architecture allows the exchange and extension of components, making it possible to add new features to the system as they become available. The individual adjustment of business processes is supported by a distributed workflow engine
