Container & Shipment
Tracking

🗺️

Vessel Position Tracking

Live vessel position data integrated with AIS feeds. Know exactly where your cargo is on the water, updated continuously.

Stay Ahead of
Every Exception

Configurable Alert Rules

Build alert rules for any data condition — ETA change beyond a threshold, vessel rollover, demurrage day count, customs hold flag, or missing expected milestone. Rules fire per container, per lane, or globally.

  • ETA variance alerts (configurable hours threshold)
  • Demurrage countdown alerts (configurable day threshold)
  • Vessel rollover and diversion detection
  • Customs hold flag and release notification
  • Missing milestone alerts (departure not received, etc.)

Delivery Channels

Alerts reach your team wherever they work — email, SMS, in-platform notification, webhook, or EDI message to downstream systems. Configure per-user or per-team preferences.

  • Email notifications with container summary
  • In-platform notification center
  • Webhook payload to downstream systems
  • Daily digest reports by team or user

The IMS LMS Data
Quality Engine

Automated Validation

Every incoming data record is validated against carrier master files, port authority codes, vessel IMO registries, and schedule reference data before it enters the platform.

🔄

Deduplication Engine

EDI feeds from multiple sources often carry duplicate events. IMS LMS detects and merges duplicates automatically — presenting a clean, chronological event timeline.

🗂️

Data Normalization

50+ carriers, 200+ ports, and dozens of EDI formats — all normalized to a single consistent data model. Your team sees one language regardless of carrier.

Connectivity Built
for Enterprise

📡

Inbound EDI (Any Format)

ANSI X12, EDIFACT, flat file, XML, CSV, JSON. IMS handles all translation in-house — no third-party middleware, no per-message VAN fees.

📤

Outbound EDI Distribution

Send EDI messages to any trading partner in their required format — SFTP, AS2, API, or email delivery. Formatted exactly as their system expects.

🔌

RESTful API

Full REST API for programmatic access to all container, schedule, and alert data. Integrate directly into your ERP, TMS, WMS, or custom application.

🪝

Webhooks

Event-driven webhooks fire the moment a milestone changes — your systems are notified in real time, not on a polling schedule.

🔗

ERP Connectors

Integration with your ERP (like SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics, and more) enables clean logistics data to flow in without manual entry.

📊

BI Tool Export

Feed Power BI, Tableau, or any analytics platform via API or scheduled data exports. Build custom dashboards on top of clean logistics data.
