Improve customer service

Customers should never be left at the mercy of circumstances beyond their control.

Remove traditional barriers

A single missing document can sink an entire shipment for a customer. You don't want it to happen on your watch.

The true test of your business is how it reacts to its most challenging moments. With TradeLens, your customer service teams can finally elevate their role from reaction to proaction, where all participants benefit from working with a single, trusted data source.

Drive digital efficiencies

Multiple data sources – often submitted in different forms, and often in conflict with one another – slow movement of goods and accelerate costs.

Automate communications

Legacy communication systems – phone, email and EDI-based systems – all changed the world.

Reduce dwell time

Time spent waiting is time wasted.

Shippers need operators that can manage, share and integrate their data. TradeLens helps you create innovative solutions that unite parties across the supply chain. Help your teams focus on the customer by automating manual and mundane tasks that impact productivity.

Reduce extra charges

A shipment arriving at its destination can be far different than the one that left due to unforeseen costs and extra fees.

Grow your business

What actions are slowed by frictions that you've always thought were the cost of doing business?

Optimize IT investment

When IT resources are used to add value to the customer experience, you look at their investment in an entirely new way.

TradeLens integrates with users’ in-house systems via non-proprietary, publicly available APIs that are designed for ease of set-up and use.

Share and use real-time data

Open APIs enable real-time data transfer between supply chain participants via publish, subscribe, query and doc share functions.

Reduce EDI costs

Reduce EDI maintenance costs with a family of open-standard APIs for real-time data transfer between supply chain partners.

Unlock creativity

Spur innovation at all levels of your IT division by unlocking creative energies formerly locked up in EDI set-up and operation.
