One of the most interesting points about the shipping
industry is that often more money and energy is spent on processing the information
for cargo than on moving the cargo itself. One of the chief factors for this is
the enormous variety of tariff, safety, regulatory and manifest requirements which
are placed on every container, pallet or crate.
For example, the seemingly simple act of defining what
a piece of cargo is often requires several shipping specialists who can define it
for multiple category tariff classifications, which only become more complicated
when there are any kind of multiple transshipments involved.

This complexity translates into traditionally large amounts
of highly-skilled staff required to guide this process along. Automated data processing
solutions within the shipping industry have usually only been within the realm of
the largest national or international carriers and systems designed to support them.
