CargoSmart and Ningbo E-Port Integrate Supply Chain Systems

CargoSmart Limited, a Software as a Service (SaaS) global shipping and logistics solutions provider, and Ningbo E-port have successfully integrated their systems, after an initial trial period that began in September 2009. The established connections enable Ningbo E-port customers to improve their supply chain visibility and streamline their shipment management processes. Ningbo E-port is a Chinese government-backed organization that provides an information platform to help logistics service providers and cargo owners efficiently process imports and exports through the Ningbo Port.

Ningbo E-port connected its platform to CargoSmart by electronic data interchange (EDI) for booking requests, shipping instructions and cargo tracking data. The EDI integration with CargoSmart helps Ningbo E-port customers connect with their ocean carriers, submit bookings and shipping instructions, and manage their shipments effectively.

Ningbo E-port and CargoSmart plan to further develop their relationship to provide more electronic services for logistics companies over the next three years.
