GEODIS launches online pricing and online booking for Air and Ocean shipments globally
GEODIS has announced that it is now offering online quotations and online shipment bookings, via its Intelligent Real-Time Information System IRIS.
The company’s freight forwarding customers worldwide can now compare rates of different modes of transport, and place shipments within less than a minute. The quotation and booking feature has been rolled out gradually across the globe, starting in February 2018.
GEODIS’ IRIS provides full visibility on shipment statuses in real-time, access to shipment related documentation, label printing, KPI management, mile-stone alerts, exception management and customized reporting including financials.
In a statement issued this week, Kim Pedersen, GEODIS’ Executive Vice President Freight Forwarding, said: “IRIS is bringing us into the forefront of digitalization in the freight forwarding industry. It is a constantly evolving, robust and innovative platform that enables our customers to take their supply chain management to the next level, far beyond track & trace.
“More than 20,000 of our customers are using IRIS already today, and it will help them and many more to become more efficient, now and in the future.”
The quotation and booking features are already live in several countries, including Belgium, Indonesia, Sweden and the USA.
