Freight Forwarding and Cargo Management Software in the UAE
Shipments and bookings, consolidations and containers, customs declarations, warehouse, transport, rate cards and quotes, and accounting with VAT, plus a portal where your customers track their own cargo. One system for the whole forwarding job.
Try it yourself
The live demo runs the complete system for a fictional forwarder, Gulf Bridge Logistics, across freight, customs, warehouse, transport and accounting.
A freight forwarding job touches everyone: sales quotes it, operations books it, customs clears it, the warehouse handles it, transport delivers it and accounts bill it. When each team works in its own spreadsheet and email thread, details get retyped, documents go missing and nobody can quickly answer the customer’s simplest question: where is my shipment?
We build freight forwarding software that follows the job from the first request to the final invoice, with every team working on the same record. Air, sea and road shipments, house and master bills, containers and customs declarations live in one system, and your customers can check their shipments without calling you.
What the system covers
Shipments and bookings
Bookings come in from your team or the customer portal and become shipment jobs across every mode and branch, with house and master bills kept together.
Consolidations and containers
Group house shipments under one master bill, and track every container with demurrage and detention countdowns.
Customs declarations
Import, export, transit and re-export declarations with duty and VAT assessment, an HS code lookup and a duty calculator to estimate landed cost before filing.
Denied-party screening
Check customers and partners against the sanctions and denied-party list, and record the result on their profile.
Warehouse
Inbound receipts and put-away, stock on hand, picking and dispatch, bin locations and cycle counts for client-owned stock.
Transport
Drayage, deliveries, cross-border and courier jobs on a dispatch board, with your own and subcontracted fleet and drivers.
Rate cards and quotes
Buy and sell rate cards per lane, a pricing desk for sales requests, and quotes that become bookings the moment the customer accepts.
Accounting with VAT
Job charges, customer invoices, vendor bills, payments, credit notes, ageing and a VAT report per branch country, all tied to the job they came from.
Customer portal
Customers track their shipments, see declarations, invoices, statements and stock, and send new requests themselves.
Exceptions and follow-ups
A rules engine flags delays, missing documents, detention and overdue invoices, and a follow-up agent chases the next step on Telegram.
Document reading and assistant
Upload a PDF or a photo and its fields are pulled out and checked against the system. An assistant answers questions from your live data without changing anything.
CRM and reports
Leads, clients, agents and carriers in one CRM, a sales funnel, and reports that export to CSV.
What we built for a freight forwarder
We built this system for a freight forwarding company, to run the whole job in one place: bookings and shipments, consolidations and containers, customs declarations, the warehouse, transport, sales quotes and rate cards, and accounting with VAT, plus a portal for their customers.
The live demo runs the same system with a fictional forwarder, Gulf Bridge Logistics, so you can sign in as operations, customs, the warehouse, accounts, sales or as a customer without seeing any client data.
We keep client names private, but we can walk you through how the system works on a call.
Why one system for the whole job
One record per job
Sales, operations, customs, the warehouse, transport and accounts all work on the same job, so nothing is retyped and nothing is lost between teams.
Customers serve themselves
The customer portal answers "where is my shipment?" and shows invoices and documents, so your team spends less time on calls.
Problems surface early
Delays, missing documents, detention and overdue invoices are flagged automatically instead of being discovered late.
Built for UAE forwarders
Customs declarations with duty and VAT, VAT reporting per branch country and multi-branch operations are part of the system from the start.
