Business Central Implementation For An Air Cargo Company In The USA
About Client
A leading air cargo company in the USA offers both international and domestic cargo services. The company started to struggle as it grew quickly. The company had outdated and disconnected systems, which created problems in tracking shipments and managing financial and inventory operations.
Problem Statement
The company has approached Aegis Softtech for solutions highlighting the pain points as follows:
- We were facing a lot of issues with our systems not working together. Our finance, inventory, and logistics were all managed on separate platforms, which made things disorganized and harder to keep track of.
- In finance, it took too long to balance our accounts and keep track of cash flow. We couldn't see our inventory or shipments in real time, and the manual processes were leading to mistakes and delays. As we grew, it became clear that our systems couldn’t handle the increased demand, and it started holding us back.
