Kewill Prepares To Join WCA E-Platform

Supply chain solution provider Kewill has begun the process to integrate the WCA’s WIN e-platform to its MOVE forwarding platform.

“With over 6,000 independent forwarder members in 180 countries, many of whom already use Kewill solutions, our partnership with WCA will help us to grow our customer base,” said Doug Braun, CEO of Kewill. “MOVE’s architecture already supports seamless connectivity and the new connection to WIN will give our customers broad reach to reduce their reliance on email and redundant data handling by exchanging shipment data, documents, and milestones with their WCA agency partners.”

According to the WCA, WIN allows independent forwarders to connect with partner agents, airlines, container lines and other logistics service providers for secure digital collaboration.

“I am delighted that yet another leading freight forwarding software company has given the go ahead to partner with WIN,” said John DeBenedette, managing director of WIN. “We are very pleased to welcome Kewill to the network. Independent forwarders already have an edge on service and local expertise but lag behind their multinational rivals on seamless IT connectivity. WIN makes the systems of forwarders anywhere in the world interoperable so they can work on a level playing field with multinationals who have more homogeneous IT landscapes.”
