What is Descartes Forwarder Enterprise Suite?

Descartes Broker & Forwarder Enterprise Systems redefines the way freight forwarders and customs brokers operate by connecting shipment management, regulatory compliance, and financial performance within one intelligent platform. Designed for freight forwarders, 3PLs, and NVOCCs, the solution automates everything from quote generation and booking to customs clearance, invoicing, and customer visibility. Its integrated compliance engine ensures accurate filing for customs declarations, security filings, and denied party screening, reducing the risk of penalties and shipment delays. Through the Forwarder TMS, users can manage multimodal shipments—air, ocean, and ground—with end-to-end visibility into rates, tracking, and customer milestones. Global Price Management enables carriers and forwarders to handle complex rate structures and deliver precise quotes within minutes, improving pricing accuracy by up to 99%. Combined with accounting, warehousing, and PO management, Descartes unifies back-office processes that traditionally required multiple disjointed systems. The platform also features white-labeled shipment portals for customers, offering real-time freight status and self-service tracking. With Descartes’ decades of domain expertise and cloud infrastructure, forwarders benefit from scalable, secure, and globally supported technology. Customers like Skypace report cutting rate processing time by 85% and improving surcharge accuracy across millions of records. By centralizing critical functions, Descartes Broker & Forwarder Enterprise Systems delivers measurable gains in efficiency, compliance, and customer retention for the modern logistics enterprise.
