Export Freight Forwarder Challenges
Increasing security regulations and compliance requirements are additional challenges
being faced by export freight forwarders. Majority of export freight forwarders are
implementing technology to track shipments all the way to purchase order and product
levels, competently control consolidations and integrate with warehouse operations,
Automated Manifest Systems (AMS), and
Customs reporting (AES) in a timely, secure, and efficient manner.
Integrated Solution for Export Freight Forwarders - EFFQW
Developed to meet the specific needs of export forwarders, the EFFQW
solution streamlines export freight forwarding functions such as initial goods
warehousing, bookings, and consolidations. EFFQW easily accepts
information from exporter legacy systems, and naturally flows it into the QuestaWeb
Import Freight Forwarder (IFFQW) and Customhouse Brokerage (CHBQW)
systems, as well as into Customs supported and mandated systems such as
AMSQW
and AESQW.
EFFQW is tightly integrated into the TradeMasterQW application suite,
thus ensuring on-line verification of key information and enabling the freight
forwarder to navigate any export and accounting data rapidly and securely.
