Freightos Revolutionizes Shipping by Unifying Air and Ocean Freight Management
Freightos Revolutionizes Freight Management
Freightos Limited, a leading player in the global freight booking and payment platforms, is reinventing logistics for freight forwarders with its latest innovation: the WebCargo Rate Quote Ocean. This new tool effectively integrates air and ocean freight pricing, quoting, and booking into a single, user-friendly digital platform, thereby eliminating the inefficiencies that previously plagued the freight forwarding industry.
For years, freight forwarders have struggled with managing separate systems for air and ocean logistics, leading to cumbersome processes and delays. However, with the introduction of Rate Quote Ocean, these challenges are a thing of the past. As Zvi Schreiber, CEO of Freightos, articulated, ocean freight was often perceived as a missing piece of the puzzle in digital rate management. This new solution seamlessly bridges the gap between air and ocean transport, thereby simplifying workflow and helping forwarders enhance their service delivery.
Key Features of WebCargo Rate Quote Ocean
The comprehensive integration allows forwarders to manage all aspects of freight operations in one place. With features that support rate management, quoting, and booking, users can now handle everything from carrier rates and local charges to trucking costs without needing to switch platforms. This centralization significantly speeds up the quote process, with reports indicating up to a 75% reduction in quote times during the beta phase of the product. Having processed thousands of quotes already, freight forwarders are seeing a transformative shift in how fast and efficiently they can operate.
Moreover, the platform is also set up to integrate with various Transportation Management Systems (TMS), providing even greater flexibility and synchronization with existing workflows. This is especially crucial in today's fast-paced logistics environment, where efficiency and speed can dictate the success of a business.
Impact on the Industry
The introduction of WebCargo Rate Quote Ocean marks a significant advancement in Freightos' mission to streamline and modernize global freight logistics. With Freightos’s annual processing of over 1.6 million transactions, its ability to handle both air and ocean freight represents a major milestone. The consolidation of logistics on a unified platform not only enhances user experience but also supports shippers in navigating current challenges faced in global trade.
The new tool's ease of use and efficiency positions Freightos at the forefront of digital transformation in the logistics sector. Forwarders are now better equipped to compete, offering their clients a faster and more reliable service, all while reducing operational complexity.
Conclusion
Freightos is committed to pushing the boundaries of what is possible with freight technology. The integration of ocean freight capabilities into the WebCargo platform is a testament to their understanding of the industry's needs and their dedication to providing effective solutions. As international trade becomes increasingly reliant on technology for speed and accuracy, tools like WebCargo Rate Quote Ocean will be essential in shaping the future of logistics and freight forwarding.
