Import Ocean Freight Sourcing is Complicated to Manage

Negotiating and managing the ocean freight bid and award process is a time consuming, complicated process. Uncoordinated communications, using outdated technology further compounds the issue, introduce inefficiencies and errors.  You need to provide adequate coverage in your shipping lanes based on anticipated volumes at a competitive fair cost.  To achieve this goal you need to submit your bid requests to multiple steam ship lines that can meet your operating needs and business requirements with the results coming back to you in a centralized portal that allows you to accurately compare pricing and promised service schedules.

Challenges

  • How do I know that the shipment bids I receive from carriers are fair and competitive?

  • Compared to last year, are the available rates higher or lower and by how much?

  • How can our company dramatically reduce the inefficiency of asking multiple steamship lines to bid on a shipping lane?

  • Can our company access a private, business-to-business online marketplace setup exclusively for our selected steamship lines and NVOCCs?
