Features
Every module, explained.
CargoGrid is built as a set of connected modules. Adopt them individually or as a full platform — each one is designed to remove friction from a specific part of the airfreight workflow.
Quote Management
A fast, consistent commercial workspace for building airfreight quotes — with unit build and loose cargo modes, tariff references and internal profitability worksheets.
Key Capabilities
- Unit Build and Loose Cargo pricing modes
- Carrier-specific surcharges and rate references
- Buy / sell breakdown with margin visibility
- Branded quotation PDF export
Workflow
Enter shipment specification → apply airline tariff or reference rate → review sell rate and profitability → export a commercial worksheet.

Shipment Management
Track every shipment through its full operational lifecycle with an approval workflow that keeps commercial and operational teams aligned.
Key Capabilities
- Central shipment inbox with status filters
- Operations approval and build assignment
- Inline creation of new consolidations
- Full audit trail for every change
Workflow
Partner submits shipment → operations reviews and assigns to a build → shipment flows through planning, execution and reporting.

Auto-Build
A search-based optimiser that minimises the total number of PMCs used, respects contour and stacking rules, and returns the best build within your chosen time budget.
Key Capabilities
- Sequential-fill strategy with multi-seed local search
- Contour-Assisted Placement for overhanging pieces
- Stackability, support and height-tolerance rules
- Live progress and comparison against the greedy baseline
Workflow
Select shipments and destination → pick a search budget → run Auto-Build → review the optimised plan against the initial build.

Key Capabilities
- Interactive 2D and 3D build canvas
- Configurable PMC profiles per destination

- Operational-only Build Pack export
Workflow
Open the planner → drag, rotate or auto-arrange pieces → resolve validation issues inline → print the Build Pack.

Partner Portal
Give partners their own least-privilege workspace to submit shipments, quote against your rates and collaborate on consolidations — without exposing costs or margins.
Key Capabilities
- Role-based access (NCC Operations vs Partner)
- Partners enter sell rate only, never see cost or profit
- Shipment submission and approval visibility
- Shared reference data for consistent quoting
Workflow
Partner logs in → submits shipment against agreed rates → operations approves and assigns to a build.

Reporting
Operational and commercial reporting to surface performance across your network — departures, utilisation, profitability and partner activity.
Key Capabilities
- Home Workspace with live operational metrics
- Departures, utilisation and approval queues
- Commercial performance across lanes
- Extensible alerts framework for operations
Workflow
Open the Home Workspace → drill into a metric → export or share the underlying data.
