You and Sallaum Lines, looking at the same shipment
Sallaum Lines runs its whole network on Logisoft. Book on Logisoft too and there is nothing to send them and nothing to check against them, because you are both working the same shipment. Not two systems kept in step. One.
Where the work goes
Nothing has to travel between you
This is not a faster connection between two systems. It is the absence of one. The messages your team sends the line, and waits on, stop existing rather than getting quicker.
Two systems
Every arrow is something somebody sends, and something somebody waits for. Each one is a chance for the two sides to end up holding different answers.
One shipment
Sallaum Lines already runs on Logisoft. Join them and there is nothing in the middle: you, the line, the terminal and the agent are all on the same shipment.
Nothing to send
The booking you enter is the booking the line works from. Nothing is exported, emailed, or typed in again at their end while you wait to hear back.
No delay
When the line moves a car forward, your shipment moves forward. There is no overnight update and no lag, because there is no second copy to catch up.
Papers in place
The draft B/L and the shipping documents sit with the cars they cover, where both sides can see the same version, instead of travelling around as attachments.
One version
Your booking and theirs cannot drift apart, because there is only one. Nothing to compare on a Friday, and no argument about whose list is right.
The questions you ask the line every week stop needing to be asked
Has it been received. Is it on the vessel. Has the B/L been cut. You are looking at the same shipment they are, so the answer is already on your screen.
One booking. Three cars, three stages.
Your customers can see it too
Give a shipper their own login and they stop ringing you for updates, which removes the second set of chasing emails nobody counts.
Car by car, not booking by booking
Forty cars on one booking will sit at different stages. You see each one, which is what you need when a customer asks about theirs.
No overnight wait
Nothing runs on a schedule between two systems, because there is only one. What the line does now, you see now.
Nobody was emailed.
Change it once, and it is changed for everyone
Amend a party, a description, a customs detail or a car. There is no second update to send and no window where your paperwork and the line's disagree.
The terminal sees it as well
Terminals, agents and brokers on the shipment work the same one, so a change does not have to be repeated down the chain by email.
Nothing to reconcile
There is no end-of-week comparison between your bookings and the carrier's, because they were never two lists in the first place.
You still control your own side
Sharing a shipment is not sharing a company. The line sees the shipments it carries for you, and nothing else about your business.
