Europartners deploy CargoSphere freight rate system

CargoSphere, which provides global rate management technology for the ocean and air transportation sectors, announced a deal with global logistics firm Europartners in Mexico, according to a company statement

Europartners is using the cloud-based system for automating freight rate pricing and contract management, quoting rates to customers, confidential rate networking, and integrating these functions with its customer relationship management and transportation management systems, the statement said.

The deployment followed a three-month trial in which Europartners determined that the CargoSphere Rate System streamlined processes, boosting cross-functional collaboration, and invoice accuracy.

"With CargoSphere's support, our global inside sales and pricing teams are now working collaboratively to create timely, customized customer quotation proposals that not only include cargo details but also customer profile information from our CRM system," said Ricardo Rodriguez, Europartners Group President.
