Built for the companies that move goods.
We build the analytics tuned to how each link in the trade chain measures itself, from importers and brokers to forwarders, 3PLs, and ports.
Importers & Exporters
Importers and exporters run on landed cost, duty, and timing, and generic BI gets all three wrong. We model landed cost and margin, duty exposure, and supplier performance from the systems you already run, so leadership decides on current numbers.
- Landed cost and margin by SKU, supplier, and shipment
- Duty and tariff exposure with same-day scenario modeling
- Supplier lead-time reliability and total cost
Customs Brokers
Brokers live and die on accuracy and speed, and spreadsheets cannot show where entries stall. We model throughput, clearance time, classification quality, and screening coverage, with an audit trail on every entry.
- Entry throughput and clearance time by client, port, and filer
- Classification consistency and reclassification rates
- Denied-party screening coverage with an audit trail
Freight Forwarders
When shipment status lives in a dozen carrier portals, service suffers and exceptions surface late. We unify carrier milestones into one view and measure OTIF, cost per lane, and demurrage, so the operation runs on evidence.
- Shipment visibility and milestones unified over EDI and API
- OTIF and transit variance by lane and carrier
- Freight spend and cost per lane, normalized across carriers
3PL & Warehousing
Trade inventory spans bonded zones, FTZs, and multiple sites, each with its own rules. We model inventory, throughput, and fulfillment across all of it, so cash and space tied up in the wrong stock become visible.
- Inventory across sites, bonded and FTZ included
- Receiving and dock-to-stock throughput
- Fulfillment accuracy and cycle time by client
Ports & Terminals
Congestion builds before anyone can see it, and operations data is scattered. We model dwell time, gate and berth throughput, and congestion so the yard is managed on evidence, with security vision available where it fits.
- Container dwell time by type, status, and yard area
- Gate and berth throughput by shift and hour
- Congestion flags before the yard locks up
Manufacturers & Distributors
Companies that source abroad and distribute at home straddle two worlds of data. We model S&OP, forecast accuracy, and product P&L with true landed cost in COGS, across the cross-border network.
- S&OP with demand, supply, and import lead times in one plan
- Forecast accuracy by product family and horizon
- Product P&L with landed cost folded into COGS
Ocean & Shipping Carriers
The companies that carry the cargo need service, cost, and utilization measured against partners and terminals. We build the analytics around how carriers run.
- Service and on-time performance by lane and partner
- Cost and utilization across the fleet
- Shipment and cargo visibility
What the analytics delivers.
Freight, duty, and fees allocated to the unit from SAP and freight invoices, so margin by product is a daily number.
Entry throughput, clearance time, and exceptions tracked by client, port, and filer, with an audit trail on every entry.
Carrier milestones unified over EDI and API into one planned-versus-actual view, with exceptions flagged early.
Charges tied to container events and the free-time clock, attributed to a cause and an owner so avoidable fees are prevented.
Duty exposure by HTS code and origin, with a scenario layer that reprices the import book the day a rate changes.
Illustrative scenarios of the impact these analytics target, not specific client results.
