Cardinal Global Logistics Scales Customs Bureau with Descartes
e-Customs™ Solution
Descartes Systems Group (Nasdaq:DSGX) (TSX:DSG), the global leader
in uniting logistics-intensive businesses in commerce, announced
that Cardinal Global Logistics (Cardinal), the world's largest
employee-owned logistics business, has scaled its Customs Bureau
using the Descartes e-Customs™ solution. Through digitisation
enabled by Descartes e-Customs, Cardinal has grown from manually
processing 1,000 customer entries per month three years ago to
managing 15,000 monthly entries today.
“Managing customs declarations is increasingly complex and
manually handling thousands of entries monthly is time-consuming
and prone to error. We needed a robust system that would enable us
to provide an enhanced customer experience, automate repetitive
processes, and improve analytics, reporting and audits for
clients,” said Karl Heron, Head of Bureau Services at Cardinal
Global Logistics. “This process was fast-tracked at the start of
the pandemic because we needed a cloud-based system that enabled
remote working. Descartes e-Customs has allowed us to scale our
operations and improve our customer experience.”
Descartes e-Customs is a secure, web-based solution that helps
filers submit data to HMRC and other government agencies through a
concise, easy-to-use interface. From template-driven declarations,
client-specific data and the ability to duplicate previous
declarations, Descartes e-Customs can adapt to the multiple ways
that companies operate. The solution includes multiple options to
support the needs of both small and large operations. Traders can
manage inbound and outbound declarations from within one advanced
solution.
“It has been a pleasure and privilege for Descartes to enable
transformational growth for Cardinal’s Customs Bureau,” said Peio
Ribas, Senior Vice President Sales EMENAR at Descartes. “One of the
most robust solutions in the field of regulatory compliance,
Descartes e-Customs helps organisations boost productivity,
streamline customs workflows, and improve the accuracy of customs
filing processes.”
