FAQs

Everything you need to know

How is Nuvocargo accountable for outcomes, rather than just providing software?

Nuvocargo is more than a software provider—we act as an extension of your team. That means we don’t just give you tools and dashboards; we actively manage execution, optimization, and day-to-day logistics operations. You can hold us accountable for key metrics like OTP, OTD, and freight budgets because we take ownership of tasks that impact your bottom line. Instead of simply offering visibility, we drive results—ensuring your shipments move efficiently and cost-effectively.

Do you sell your TMS as a standalone product?

No, Nuvocargo’s technology is not offered as a standalone software product. Our platform is part of our 4PL service, where our team operates alongside you to deliver measurable cost savings, service-level improvements, and full supply chain visibility.

Can Nuvocargo integrate with our existing TMS, ERP, or other systems?

Yes. We know that ripping and replacing systems isn’t practical, so Nuvocargo is built to work with the tools you already use. Our team collaborates closely with your IT and operations teams to ensure smooth, customized integrations that fit into your existing workflow. Whether it’s syncing shipment data with your ERP or integrating our Control Tower with your TMS, we make sure information flows seamlessly across your entire supply chain.

How would my logistics and other teams partner with Nuvocargo?

We work as an extension of your logistics and procurement teams, handling the heavy lifting so you can focus on strategic decisions. Our technology automates manual processes like load tendering, freight audits, and document management, while our team provides proactive insights to keep your supply chain optimized.
