Client Profile Services

Carrier Responsibilities

The Carriers are required to have a Profile on all their Clients. The Profiles have to contain information that would indicate that the Shipper has legal status to be conducting business in the international transportation industry as outlined by various Government Agencies. It is also incumbent on the Carrier to ensure that the Profiles are updated on a regular basis. A Carrier Client data base usually has over 1000 clients and the larger Carriers have data bases in excess of 25000 clients. It is a momentous task to maintain the client data base current.
