Real-Time ULD Management & Tracking for Freight Forwarders & 3PLs in United States

ULD Management built for freight forwarders & 3pls in United States

Across United States, Freight Forwarders & 3PLs run ULD management on infrastructure that wasn't built for how air cargo moves today. ULD management is the backbone of air cargo operations. Lost ULDs, poor positioning, and suboptimal space utilization cost airlines millions annually. Belli provides real-time tracking of every container and pallet across your entire network. North American air cargo is dominated by the US ACAS/ACMS security regime and sophisticated customs requirements.

Operators routing through Chicago O'Hare (ORD) — carriers in the class of WestJet Cargo, Kalitta Air — face the same pressure: more volume, tighter slots, and zero tolerance for a load plan that leaves revenue on the ramp. Belli's ULD management targets a measurable outcome — 30% fewer empty ULD moves — and goes live in 10 days for teams operating in United States, not 12–18 months. United States deployments inherit the same SLA.

The operational reality in United States

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

• Booking air cargo across airlines through fragmented portals and email — compounded in United States by TSA CCSP compliance
• No single view of shipment status once cargo leaves the warehouse — compounded in United States by canada PACT pre-load targeting requirements
• Manual eAWB and house manifest creation duplicated in every carrier system
• United States-specific: ACE customs system. ACAS pre-departure filing. TSA screening compliance.

What changes with Belli

Belli replaces that with a single platform tuned for United States's requirements:

• Automated eAWB and HAWB creation with IATA ONE Record transmission
• Buy/sell rate management with real-time margin visibility
• Self-service customer portal with live tracking

Before Belli: Airlines lose track of 5-15% of their ULD fleet at any given time. Poor positioning creates bottlenecks and empty flights. After Belli: Real-time visibility of 100% of ULD inventory. AI-optimized positioning reduces empty ULD movements by 30%.

How Belli's ULD Management works in United States

Under the hood, ULD management is engineered to remove the manual steps that slow freight forwarders & 3pls down.

In practice, that means AI-powered space optimization, multi-hub ULD balancing and repositioning, and damage and serviceability tracking. Belli also covers ULD lifecycle tracking against United States's specific constraints. Every step is auditable, and changes deploy continuously rather than in quarterly batches.

Built for United States's requirements

North America is not a single market — it is a set of regulators, hubs, and carrier models that punish one-size-fits-all software. North American air cargo is dominated by the US ACAS/ACMS security regime and sophisticated customs requirements.

That shows up in the details: US ACAS mandatory pre-departure filing; TSA CCSP compliance; and e-commerce fulfillment cargo growth. United States adds its own layer — ACE customs system. ACAS pre-departure filing. TSA screening compliance. Carriers such as WestJet Cargo, Kalitta Air, CargoJet operate against exactly these conditions.

Going live in 10 days in United States

Switching is the part most freight forwarders & 3pls dread — Belli compresses it into ten working days. Master data and partner connections are stood up against a real test load. The team is live and supported before the old system is switched off. After go-live you keep direct access to the engineers who built the system.

The bottom line for Freight Forwarders & 3PLs in United States

For Freight Forwarders & 3PLs in United States, the math is simple. Manual workflows do not just cost hours — they cost yield on every departure. The platform targets a concrete number: 30% fewer empty ULD moves. The benchmark has already shifted; the only question is when you match it.
