Painpoints addressed

The shipping industry is in turmoil, placing commercial relationships under increasing pressure. In this environment, relevance depends on strong volume commitments, dynamic adjustments, and fast, performance-driven decision-making. These elements are essential to building trustworthy partnerships and achieving optimized procurement.

Core Application

Service Contract Management

Industry trends highlight increasing pressures on contracts between LSPs, BCOs, and shipping lines, particularly around obligations and fulfillment. To stay ahead, LSPs and BCOs need full, real-time insight into contract performance across all shipping lines. This transparency drives smarter volume allocation, proactive balancing, and maximized tier-based incentives.

Strong commercial relationships rely on trust and predictability. FCL Lifting Hub provides the visibility and transparency necessary to support data-driven discussions, align expectations, and facilitate constructive negotiations among business partners.

Origin Services

Allocation Visibility

Building on the exceptional data quality of our core application, expanding our services into the booking process was a natural next step. This is precisely where significant errors, workarounds, and a lack of visibility place allocation performance under severe pressure, without any real-time capability to intervene and improve outcomes.

As a result, contract parties face increased, un-calculated costs with no ability to recover them by root cause, eroding trust and negatively impacting procurement performance.

FCL Lifting Hub closes this gap by delivering real-time allocation visibility and comprehensive reporting, restoring control, transparency, and performance.

Destination Services

Demurrage | Detention Visibility

Informing customers of occurring, unexpected charges, and having the ability to prevent them, is a critical obligation. Our mission is to develop destination solutions that deliver visibility and embedded business logic at your fingertips.

Geopolitical events, natural disasters, and infrastructure constraints increasingly force vessel reroutings, significantly impacting equipment availability, terminal operations, and last-mile capacity.

As a result, demurrage, detention, storage, and per-diem charges have become major cost drivers, while visibility and proactive alerting remain largely unresolved. FCL Lifting Hub will soon address this challenge with a dedicated solution.

Core Application

Service Contract overview

A key differentiator from traditional TMS solutions is the ability to visualize individual service contracts, whether managed centrally or contracted locally, with equal transparency.

Service contracts can be categorized (e.g., Spot, FAK, BSA, NAC, Commodity, etc.) and individually named, providing a comprehensive overview and enabling structured routines for contract combination and performance management.

Volume incentive reporting is no longer a time-consuming exercise, it is available at the click of a button.

Core Application

Service Contract utilization

Equally important to having full visibility of all service contracts is the ability to manage their utilization in real time.

Our dashboards provide an immediate overview of utilization and performance trends, measured against targets (MQC), supported by graphical visualizations of geographical weighting, allowing you to focus on what is most relevant.

Detailed reports enable deep dives down to individual booking and bill of lading (B/L) level.

Multi-carrier and trade lane visibility, comparison and the ability to drill into singular service contracts ensure your ocean freight product management is informed to perform.
