Core Capabilities

Complete coverage of cross-mode freight, from route design to scheduling

Unified multi-mode console

FCL, LCL, air, road and rail all share one operation console — no switching between separate systems for each transport mode.

One job, multiple legs

Split a single consignment into multiple legs by origin, transshipment and destination, each with its own responsible party and nodes, tracked independently.

Door-to-door route design

Combine sea, land, air and rail legs online by transit time and cost, auto-compare capacity and schedules, and generate a door-to-door route and quote.

Centralized capacity scheduling

Slots, sailings, flights and truck trips for every mode are scheduled together; in-transit volume and remaining capacity stay visible to avoid conflicts.

Leg-by-leg tracking

Each leg's tracking is fed back and consolidated onto the master waybill, keeping in-transit, arrival, transshipment and delivery visible end to end.

Per-leg cost accounting

Costs are collected leg by leg and totaled across currencies, so the overall cost and margin of a multimodal job are visible in real time.

FAQ

Questions you may have

Does it support sea, air, rail and road multimodal operations?

Yes. The system covers ocean FCL/LCL, air, rail and road. A single consignment can be split into multiple legs, with each leg's sailings, flights, trains and tracking orchestrated on one business line.

How do you track a shipment split across multiple legs?

Each leg has its own nodes and responsible party. Origin, transshipment port and destination are logged leg by leg, and each leg's tracking is fed back and consolidated onto the master waybill, so the full in-transit status is visible at a glance without switching systems.

Can door-to-door multimodal routes be designed online?

Yes. You can combine sea, land, air and rail legs online by origin, destination, transit time and cost, automatically compare capacity and schedules, generate a door-to-door route and quote, and dispatch booking and operation tasks for each leg in one click.

How are multimodal capacity and schedules managed?

Slots, sailings, flights and truck trips for every mode are centralized on one scheduling board. In-transit volume and remaining capacity are visible at a glance, and jobs can be scheduled by time-priority or cost-priority to avoid capacity conflicts and broken transshipments.
