Softlink Global announced a strategic partnership of its state-of-the-art Transportation Management System (TMS) Logi-Sys with CargoAi, a leading provider of air cargo booking and data solutions. This powerful integration will empower logistics businesses with enhanced visibility, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness across their supply chains.
Seamless Integration for Streamlined Operations
Logi-Sys and CargoAi will connect through a secure Application Programming Interface (API), facilitating the seamless exchange of data and real-time updates between the two platforms. Key functionalities of the integration include:
- Real-time Quote & Booking with Advanced Options: Leveraging CargoAi’s extensive network of 100+ carriers, Logi-Sys users can generate quotes and book shipments instantly within the existing ecosystem. Options for pre-booking and rate comparison from suitable options of Fastest (speed), Cost-Efficient (cost), or Greenest (environmental impact) are provided
- Carbon Emission Calculation and Offsetting: With the European Union’s strict stance on carbon offsets, among other regulatory bodies, the need for carbon emission calculation and subsequent offsetting is at an all-time high. CargoAi’s integration capabilities means Logi-Sys users can now calculate carbon emissions based on the IATA Carbon Emission algorithm and explore carbon offset options, meeting sustainability goals
- Real-time Rates and Contract Management: The access to real-time rates and contract rates from some 165+ carriers (and growing) directly within Logi-Sys is another powerful capability. Forwarders can upload and compare bespoke contract rates with ease, even for non-live integrated carriers
- Live Schedules and Tracking: Businesses gain real-time access to live flight schedules from 700+ carriers and shipment tracking updates from 200+ airlines (and growing)
- Simplified eAWB Submission: The integration ensures adherence to compliances and avoidance of carrier surcharges via eAWBs submission for both Freighter Waybills (FWBs) and House Air Waybills (FHLs) to 120+ carriers
- Instant & Secure Payments: The partnership will enable users to simplify, manage and track invoice payment with CargoWALLET, a modern payment solution, in more than 45 currencies.
Empowering all players in the logistics ecosystem
Freight forwarders, shippers, and logistics service providers will all benefit from this powerful integration:
- Forwarders: Experience streamlined booking processes, improved shipment visibility, & reduced hassle and hazards of manual data entry
- Shippers: Gain access to faster rates from forwarders, real-time shipment tracking, and enhanced supply chain management capabilities
- Logistics Service Providers: Improve operational efficiency and compliance with automated workflows, live data synchronization, and simplified air waybill submission
Driving innovation and growth
This collaboration between Logi-Sys and CargoAi extends beyond basic integration. The combined expertise of both companies fosters a spirit of innovation, paving the way for the development of new and even more powerful solutions for the evolving logistics landscape.
