Global Logistics
Network
The OCR Global Logistics
Network (GLN) is one of the world’s largest
multimodal networks of transportation providers and their
customers. The OCR GLN facilitates the interchange of
logistics information and provides value-added
application services that leverage this information to
help enterprises standardize business processes and
streamline their logistics operations. The OCR GLN has
over 5,000 connected companies managing their shipments
over the network.
OCR GLN automates, manages
and streamlines the end-to-end shipment process from
source to consumer with ongoing real-time visibility
including:
- Booking and
Reservations: OCR's
centralized booking portal provides visibility into
rates, contracts, and shipment details from global
locations to enable more informed decision-making and
contract development. Carriers can distribute product,
routing, capacity and rate information to forwarders
24/7 in real time, while forwarders can access carrier
information and make electronic bookings via a simple
web browser (no software installation required).
Integration of cost tables with contracts also allows
for deeper analysis to improve asset utilization and
overall margins. Additionally, our host-to-host service
enables forwarders to execute bookings from within
their own in-house system.
