Why Digitization Is Critical to Forwarders and Brokers

Digitization is key to meeting customer expectations to evaluate booking options and execute and track shipments on-demand. In order to offer the services that customers now expect, forwarders must not only provide customers with a web-based self-service portal but should also automate the supporting back office operations and carrier interaction. The goal of digitization is to help transform your operations to be more responsive to customers, reduce operational costs, and free resources for higher value work that makes a difference to customers and the bottom line.
