CocoonOPS offers the ultimate transport management system
CocoonOPS is about helping freight forwarders, and logistics and transport operators, become more efficient, productive, and sustainable with its user-friendly, intuitive TMS interface. Its cloud-based nature means it can be used anywhere with an internet connection, whether in the office or on the move, without delay on complex in-house systems and maintenance.
Our cloud-based transport/freight management system is designed to address all those issues for all modes of transport (Air/Sea/Road/Rail/Courier) with these key features listed below:
CocoonOPS is more than just a transport management system; it’s a complete logistics solution. By signing up, you can benefit from a streamlined operational process that saves time, and money, and reduces stress.
Freight Instruction
Complete overview of a consignment, with all necessary information to hand. The system has conditional logic included to reduce mistakes when inputting information and highlights missing information. Along with CocoonCarbon the carbon emissions for the shipment is also displayed, with actionable data for the user to view.
Drag and drop Freight Builder
Our Drag n’drop freight builder, helps the user visually to build and manage the freight. Simply dragging and dropping, gets away from the traditional methods of having to navigate through multiple screens. We even have the option to duplicate freight to make the process for large shipments even quicker.
Drag and Drop Movement Builder
Drag n’drop Movement Builder breaks the mould of how TMS’s should work. With older systems you have to go through multiple screens to add container numbers, adding carriers and dates and times. Our movement builder is automated based on the shipping instructions it’s generated. You then can rearrange or add transport legs visually and quickly.
Document Management
Document Management – seems to be a real sticking point on older TMS’s. CocoonOPS allows you to create and manage documents securely. Simple Drag n’drop from desktop or email onto the shipment. Our System then encrypts the document and securely secure them with timestamp. The documents can then either be sent via email through the system or downloaded. The customer can see the document you select to be seen through our Customer Portal (CocoonTMP). As of course your customers can send documents via the portal to the TMS.
