B.I.G. Logistics launches centralized logistics operating system on single global database

Feb 15, 2023

B.I.G. Logistics LLC, a SecurCapital Corp company, announced a new partnership with CargoWise. This partnership will allow B.I.G. Logistics to significantly expand its international reach and enhance its ability to provide comprehensive logistics services to its customers around the world optimizing operations across borders, regulatory boundaries, compliance, and all freight modes.

B.I.G. Logistics, LLC is a third-party logistics provider (3PL) and technology-enabled warehouse management IT platform with warehouses throughout Texas and along the Mexican border.

B.I.G. Logistics CEO Vinod Baliga shared, “B.I.G. Logistics is excited to be live on the CargoWise platform, which was selected as the ERP system of choice for our Supply Chain Logistics Services, because of its robust international solution and alignment with our strategic growth initiatives and objectives. Being that both of our current M&A additions were existing CargoWise users, the migration has been seamless and will allow our company to offer a fully integrated database solution to our market with visibility and E2E intel in the Supply Chain.”

CargoWise is an industry-recognized, end-to-end, global logistics platform. In addition to providing real-time visibility and automation tools, the platform supports deep integration data flows to international airline carriers, ocean shipping lines, and air and seaports. Documentation is fully automated from the initial quotation through booking, in transit, warehouse, and invoicing for real-time operations and financial integration.

The timing of the CargoWise implementation is a perfect strategic fit for the B.I.G. Logistics multi-year expansion. The real value is upgrading the existing client functionality and efficiency with real-time visibility and reporting through the entire shipment workflow and easily scaling the platform for both new client onboarding and new M&A activity.

Equally important is all the customs documentation required for international clearance on each shipment through air and seaports. The platform is purposely designed to provide both multi-currency and multi-lingual functionality covering the entire documentation compliance.

Always striving to improve the client experience through operational efficiencies, B.I.G Logistics, and its operational teams have the pre-eminent platform in supporting their expanded customer base – real-time alerts and visibility on shipping status, operational automation from quotation through invoicing, and integrated customs clearance.

Steve Russell, CEO & Founder, SecurCapital Corp added: “Adding CargoWise a proven global operating system to our suite of technology solutions greatly complements our stack of services and adds visibility for our cross-border e-commerce which is time-sensitive and complex. As we add acquisitions integrating within weeks to one global platform will give the group a real competitive edge in the market.”
