CargoWise Workflow Automation: Reducing Manual Work in Freight Operations
A large share of freight operations work is repetitive — status updates, rate lookups, document generation. CargoWise's workflow automation tools are built to take that off your team's plate.
Key takeaways
- CargoWise's workflow engine (PAVE) automates repetitive tasks, alerts, and status updates.
- Automation extends to container and AWB workflows, not just general task triggers.
- RPA and auto-rating reduce manual data entry and quoting time.
- Automation only works as well as the workflow rules it's built on.
The workflow engine
CargoWise's workflow engine, PAVE, automates routine tasks and triggers — sending alerts, generating documents, and advancing shipment status — based on rules you define, rather than requiring an operator to manually push each step forward.
Where automation shows up in practice
Automation extends into container and AWB-specific workflows, robotic process automation (RPA) for repetitive data entry, and auto-rating for faster, more consistent quoting — reducing the manual steps between a booking coming in and a shipment moving forward.
Automation is only as good as its rules
Poorly defined workflow rules automate mistakes just as efficiently as they automate correct steps. Getting real value out of workflow automation means investing time upfront in defining the rules correctly — which is usually where implementation expertise pays off.
