This chapter reports on the design of an integration platform that supports the collection and analysis of third‐party, real‐time data for the dynamic planning of cargo transportation. Especially, flexible allocation of cargo to transportation modes and routes is targeted, also known as synchromodal transportation. The chapter presents a domain model of synchromodal transport resulting from the problem investigation. It also presents the design of the synchromodal transportation integration platform (SmTIP) to improve dynamic planning and information services for synchromodal transport. It provides the development of a prototype for the validation of the SmTIP design. During SmTIP validation, a prototype of the SmTIP using Mendix was developed. The prototype provides a user interface to planners who are responsible for transport planning by dividing orders into orderlines which are then assigned to shipments with a certain modality and route.
