The Descartes Global Logistics Network

A core component of Descartes’ Logistics Technology Platform is The Global Logistics Network (GLN), which brings together transportation carriers, NVOCCs, freight forwarders, 3PLs, customs house brokers, manufacturers, distributors, retailers and regulatory authorities using standardized business processes. The Descartes GLN also helps unite hardware, software, networks and a community of partner organizations to manage resources in motion. The Global Logistics Network is the foundation on which both applications and community are built. It is differentiated by its management of data semantics, message delivery, transformation of data pertaining to regional or global operations and its ability to work across wired and wireless technologies. The Global Logistics Network gives you the flexibility to connect and collaborate your way. It was designed to be a network, and is not an application attempting to act as a network. You can seamlessly move or transform data through the network to your various trading partners, leverage Descartes solutions on the network or connect to your existing solutions.

The key to future success for logistics intensive organizations lies within a global network. This inter-enterprise collaborative model unites all members engaged in logistics business processes to reduce implementation times, accelerate return on investment and simplify the complexities challenging the logistics industry.
