QMS (Quote Management System)

QMS

HAE operate a bespoke application developed by our own in-house team. Our Webportal runs in parallel to a variety of carrier systems that we use, and has been developed to integrate and communicate where possible with these carrier systems.

Our web portal is a fully-fledged web based solution which is used for the immediate, seamless and accurate commercial interactions with our freight forwarding customers, and our airline partners, offering the following:

Sales
  • Mobile access to CRM, as well as customer and carrier specific reporting during field sales meetings
  • Instantaneous input of customer sales visit records whilst on the road
  • Mobile interrogation of customer and carrier rates
  • Seamless and standardised carrier spot rate requests wherever we are
  • Accurately measured quote response times
  • Professional delivery of customer quotes direct to their inbox
  • Field sales’ Live-view of quotes and bookings whilst mobile
  • Customer click-to-book capability directly from their inbox
  • Quote feedback captured immediately based on customer entry
Security
  • The website is https secure and all traffic is encrypted
  • The system structure allows permissions and user groups so that we can protect information based on user, location and carrier
  • Password information is hashed so true passwords can only ever be known by the user, and are not stored readably in any of the back screens
Operations and Administration
  • Customer click-to-book capability directly from their inbox
  • From moment quote is accepted, it is SOP for our team to make carrier booking within 15 minutes; automated traffic light system is linked to this

  • Push notifications of spot-rate information to customers, based on converted FSU data
  • Expedited exception handling as result of FSU filtration, results in improved customer service

  • Mawb stock control – we can allocate AWB stock to customers and run reports to immediately identify usage and unused stock per customer or per carrier
  • Full suite of operational documents – system generated Hawb, Mawb, Airline Delivery and Collection Notes, Delivery Instructions, POD requests, etc.
