Deploy Freight Visibility Software Effortlessly

Freight management visibility software for improving supply chain visibility in the transport industry in Africa (Machipanda and Malaba). Customers want the best services at the lowest cost. They want to be empowered with information about the valuable cargo you have been entrusted to transport. 

Factories and distribution centres need real-time information on cargo movement to feed their production and sales requirements, to improve freight forwarding system visibility using warehouse logistics management, and freight visibility software solutions. Welcome to Logistics 2.0 Freight visibility software!!

  • Parts of the Beira corridor (like Tete) and the Northern Corridor (bordering DRC) have poor connectivity. Hence, our Store-and-Forward /  Offline IoT Tracking capabilities help.

  • Digital Proof of Delivery (POD) allows hauliers in the SADC region to trigger invoices while the truck is still on the N6 highway, reducing Days Sales Outstanding (DSO).

Freight management visibility, often called shipment visibility, means having the capability to track and monitor goods in real-time across the entire supply chain. This extends from where a product starts its journey to its final stop. It gives everyone involved—like the people sending the goods, the companies transporting them, and the customers waiting for them—precise and current details about the cargo’s location, condition, and estimated arrival time (ETA).

  • BLE beacons: 0 wire sensors keep an eye on things like temperature, humidity, and even if fragile goods get bumped, which is crucial for sensitive shipments.
  • Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs): Used in road transport, ELDs track how many hours drivers are on the road and monitor vehicle movement.
  • TMS software: These are core business systems that supply vital data on inventory levels, specific orders, and all the details related to a shipment.
  • Eliminating Blind Spots in the Beira & Northern Corridors
  • Real-time integration with Mozambique Single Window (McNet) for faster Beira Port clearance.
  • Automated geofencing for Mombasa Port and Nairobi ICD to track dwell times and reduce detention fees.
  • Cross-border document management to bridge the gap between KRA (Kenya) and URA (Uganda) systems.
 

Our next-generation TMS software modules enable fleet & cargo tracking tags, 2G & 4 G-enabled remote tracking of inventory for modernising supply chain visibility from the seaport to the logistics yard and the final delivery destination.
