Ocean Network Express (ONE) is now using the Descartes Kontainers, a solution to digitize the shipper-facing aspects of its freight execution operations.
Commenting on this decision, Hiroki Tsujii, Managing Director, Marketing & Commercial said at ONE, explained that shippers today need a more efficient and streamlined end-to-end freight booking experience.
With the new digital platform ONE QUOTE, powered by Descartes Kontainers, customers can now receive an instant quote for export shipments and place bookings anytime, anywhere. It’s a one stop service that completely automates traditional manual tasks
The Descartes Kontainers solution enables a fully digital customer experience including quoting, booking, tracking and dashboard analytics for shipping lines, freight forwarders, ocean transportation intermediaries (OTI) and non-vessel operating common carriers (NVOCC) around the world.
The digital freight execution platform also allows these logistics services providers (LSP) to rapidly create branded, online self-service experiences for their customers.
As the shift to digitize customer-facing operations accelerates, it is increasingly valuable to have a leading execution platform that can provide rates, quotes, and the ability to book cargo and track it on demand on any Internet-enabled device
