NetSuite-enabled companies need smart methods to further bolster capabilities, drive growth, and help keep operations running smoothly

Together with the International Air Transport Association (IATA), Descartes has further simplified air freight rate management with optional connectivity to The Air Cargo Tariff and Rules (TACT) Web Services (TWS). Used by more than 70,000 air cargo professionals worldwide, TACT offers comprehensive global air cargo rates from one consolidated database. Descartes has tapped the power of this information to bring air forwarders the edge needed to succeed in today’s competitive marketplace.

With tariffs squarely in the international spotlight, decision makers know the repercussions that tariff changes can have on business. However, it can be difficult to monitor changes that can affect the top and bottom line. Tariff fluctuations can not only influence strategic decision-making, but the analysis, review and practical application of changes can drain resources at the operational level.
