The Challenge
Stop running forwarding as four disconnected systems
Many freight forwarders run booking and forwarding, shipment tracking, container and rail management, and accounting as separate tools that don't talk to each other — meaning duplicate data entry and shipments that fall out of sync between systems.
Expedient brings forwarding, tracking, container and rail management, and accounting together in one platform built specifically for freight forwarders, so your team works from a single shipment record instead of stitching together several disconnected tools.
Air, Sea, and Road in One Platform
Manage air, sea, and road freight forwarding from a single system — one shipment record, one set of bookings and documents, instead of switching between separate tools for each mode you move freight by.
Container & Rail Management
Track container allocations, cut-off dates, and rail movements against the same shipment records you use for forwarding, so equipment and transport planning stay part of one workflow, not a separate system your team checks on its own.
Order Tracking & Visibility
See every shipment's status and milestones from booking through delivery in one tracking view, so your operations team and the customers checking on their freight always know exactly where a job stands.
Rate Management
Set up and apply freight rates across carriers, lanes, and services without manual re-keying, so quoting stays consistent and your team spends less time reconciling rate sheets against what actually gets booked.
EDI & Customs Data Exchange
Exchange shipment and customs data electronically with trading partners and the AU customs bridge, cutting the manual re-entry that slows forwarding operations down and introduces errors when data crosses between systems by hand.
Accounting Built In
Run general ledger, payables, receivables, and banking from the same platform as your forwarding jobs, so invoicing and job costing stay connected to the shipment record instead of a separate finance system.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Expedient handle both air and sea freight forwarding?
Yes. Expedient manages air, sea, and road freight forwarding on one platform, so your team isn't switching between separate systems depending on the mode a shipment is moving by. Bookings, documentation, and milestones for every mode sit on the same shipment record, which keeps forwarding staff working from one consistent view instead of re-entering the same job details for air, sea, and road freight separately.
Can Expedient track shipments and manage containers in the same system?
Yes. Order tracking and container and rail management run in the same platform as your forwarding jobs, so shipment status, milestones, and container and rail details are all visible from one shipment record. That means your operations team can check where a job stands, or where a container is sitting, without switching into a separate tracking or equipment system to find the answer.
Does Expedient include accounting, or do I need a separate finance system?
Accounting is built into the platform, not bolted on as a separate product you have to manage yourself. General ledger, payables, receivables, and banking run alongside your forwarding, tracking, and container management, so invoicing and job costing stay connected to the shipment record. That means your accounts team works from the same data your operations team already uses, rather than reconciling two separate systems at month end.
Is Expedient built specifically for AU and NZ freight forwarders?
Yes. Expedient is built for freight forwarders operating across Australia and New Zealand, with local requirements considered as part of the platform rather than added on as an afterthought later. It's backed by 30 years building freight and logistics software, reflecting three decades of experience with how AU and NZ forwarders actually run their day-to-day operations, rather than a generic global template built for another market.
