In the ever-changing landscape of ocean freight shipping, it’s more important than ever to stay ahead of the curve. Carrier Allocation enables businesses to optimize their ocean forecasting from start to finish. Move on from spreadsheets and back-and-forth emails to a collaborative space that keeps every stakeholder on the same page. 

While ocean forecasting will always be complex, using Carrier Allocation, shippers can take a smarter approach by working directly with carriers within its platform. Capacity can be secured at contracted rates weeks in advance of sailings. And when issues like blanked sailings or rejected capacity arise, alternatives can be quickly identified and implemented with no shortage of lead time. 

Once shipping data has been collected in the Carrier Allocation platform, businesses are able to evaluate and analyze the performance of carriers and vendors and continually improve their supply chains, getting their goods where they need to be, when they need to be there more efficiently than ever.
