WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS GAIN
Control
We provide a comprehensive, consistent, clean source of carrier-neutral data to eliminate biased reporting and reliance shipping line data sources, empowering you to partner with service providers based on the operational services they provide without sacrificing the information management services you need.
Transparency
IMS connects information from your supply chain, legacy systems, and service providers to provide true end-to-end visibility for all stakeholders, making information truly actionable throughout the supply chain, at all times.
Agility
IMS is your dedicated IT resource for the development of logistics management solutions. We provide personalized service that drastically reduces development lead time and enables you to implement impactful changes faster than you thought possible without competing for internal IT resources.
Some key points to keep in mind about IMS’ solutions:
- You will save money – Today’s inefficiencies, storage, demurrage, and per diem charges can add up to millions of dollars in cost each year. Our high quality data foundation powers cutting-edge visibility, collaboration, and execution tools that will provide significant, measurable cost savings.
- We fit into what you do now – We are a complimentary service that is designed to work with your current processes and partners, not to change or eliminate them.
