Maintaining separate systems to enter documentation, dispatch pickups, devan containers, plan loads, track cargo, and do billing can be a costly proposition for Container Freight Stations (CFS's). Even if you try to control costs by using automated links between systems, chances are you're paying high prices for system maintenance where duplicate data entry must occur and be cross-verified. To solve this problem, our CFS Management System provides an enterprise-wide solution, with full integration to most accounting systems.
