Carrier Contract Management
Shippers and logistics service providers face an increasingly dynamic market in the container freight industry with frequently changing schedules, transit times, and rates. To ensure that cargo moves according to plan, shippers and logistics service providers need to maintain the latest agreed upon rates with carriers, communicate with all related internal parties about the routes to book, and measure service levels to facilitate future negotiations.

In addition, CargoSmart's contract management solution is integrated with its up-to-date sailing schedules and booking functions, making it easy to plan routes and ensure bookings are made according to contract commitments.
