I spent twelve years in freight forwarding, in operations, pricing and sales, at global and regional forwarders.
A branch manager asked me for our pipeline. How many quotes we had sent, what they were worth, how many we had won. I rebuilt it from my sent folder. It took an afternoon, and the numbers were only as good as my memory of which quotes had closed.
Nobody had treated that as a software problem. Every forwarder I worked at had a system for shipments. None of them had one for quotes.
FQS is that system.
Small and mid-size forwarders. The ones for whom CargoWise is priced like an enterprise rollout and staffed like one too.
The people who use it are the salesperson and the pricing person, not the operations desk. If your quoting lives in Excel and your win rate lives in someone's head, that is the gap.

Small on purpose. When you write to us, the person who built the thing answers.
