Ground Operations built for freight forwarders & 3pls

Across the network, Freight Forwarders & 3PLs run ground operations on infrastructure that wasn't built for how air cargo moves today. Ground operations are where cargo physically moves — and where most operational failures occur. Belli digitizes the entire warehouse workflow.

Belli's ground operations targets a measurable outcome — 0 data entry delay — and goes live in 10 days, not 12–18 months.

The operational reality for Freight Forwarders & 3PLs

Here is what actually breaks for freight forwarders & 3pls.

  • Customer service chasing carriers for milestone updates
  • Buy/sell rate management and margin tracking spread across spreadsheets
  • Manual eAWB and house manifest creation duplicated in every carrier system

What changes with Belli

Belli replaces that with a single platform:

  • Direct EDI/API connections to carriers — zero re-keying
  • Self-service customer portal with live tracking
  • End-to-end shipment milestone tracking in a single dashboard

Before Belli: Paper-based warehouse processes. No real-time shipment visibility. Manual scanner data entry creating 4-hour data delays. After Belli: Fully digital warehouse operations. Real-time shipment tracking. Zero data entry delay from scanner integration.

How Belli's Ground Operations works

Belli's ground operations runs as one connected workflow.

In practice, that means outbound build-up and aircraft loading coordination, real-time operational dashboards and alerts, and warehouse management with zone/slot allocation. Belli also covers inbound acceptance and breakdown workflows. Every step is auditable, and changes deploy continuously rather than in quarterly batches.

Going live in 10 days

The migration is the opposite of a legacy rip-and-replace. Week one maps your data, rates, and EDI partners. Training runs in parallel, not after the fact. Support is a person who knows your account, available around the clock.

The bottom line for Freight Forwarders & 3PLs

For Freight Forwarders & 3PLs, the math is simple. Every week on legacy software is revenue quietly left on the ramp. The platform targets a concrete number: 0 data entry delay. The benchmark has already shifted; the only question is when you match it. Book the demo and get a go-live date in the same conversation.
