Current business process
NY Office
Like air rate management, research, and quoting is handled by the Isales team.
Contracted Rates
NY manages all of the contracted rates for:
- TPWB (Trans Pacific West Bound)
- TAWB (Trans Atlantic West Bound)
- TAEB (Trans Atlantic East Bound)
They have contracts in place with:
- NYK (Nippon Yusen Kaisha)
- OOCL (Orient Overseas Container Line)
- Yang Ming
- Evergreen
- APL (American President Lines)
- ANL, US Lines, and CMA CGM group
- Cosco
All Contracts are received as a word documents via email.
When they are received, they are reviewed and if necessary negotiated. Once agreed upon, the contract is signed and filed with the steamship line.
Once the rate has been filed with the steamship line, the ISales department will forward this on to Management Dynamics to be entered into Rate Explorer.
Management Dynamics requires all contracts are received in Word documents.
Rate Explorer is the current program used to manage and research contracted rates.
Non-Contracted Rates
ACL is one steamship line that we are using, but we have no contract with.
ACL is only used going to two destinations:
- Liverpool
- Dublin
ACL will send a PDF attachment via email with rates for these destinations. These rates will be valid for 30 days.
This PDF will be used to determine the cost's within the 30 days of receiving it. If it is past the 30 days, the ISales team will email ACL for updated rates.
Occasionally a co-loader will be used for FCL shipments. This is not the preferred way, but sometimes they will be able to provide space on a vessel that we cannot get with the steamship line or offer lower rates then the steamship line.
They will email the co-loader for a rate or search the co-loaders website. The co-loader will email back with the rate listed in the email. Like spot rates for air shipments, this rate will be valid only for the specific shipment it is requested for.
