OnGuard World Shipping Client Win
OnGuard USA Inc., provider of credit management solutions, today announced that World Shipping Inc. has selected OnGuard's flagship credit management platform, OnGuard ICMS. The product will help World Shipping integrate, enhance and streamline its credit management processes.
The solution will identify customers at the highest risk of default, combining external data and specific internal ‘behavioral' information, allowing resources to be concentrated in the most appropriate manner. The solution also brings consistency with quality controls over business communications and integrated functions for large volumes of data in multiple languages and currencies. World Shipping will become OnGuard's 152nd client in the logistics and transport space.
Samuel Eisenmann, Vice President of OnGuard USA Inc., said: "With a client like World Shipping Inc. which has three offices in the U.S. and one in the Netherlands, the ability to create uniformity across each credit management department and remain compliant with specific national shipping regulations is a key factor to the ultimate success of the business."
Historically, the shipping and trucking industries have struggled with credit management issues. High volumes of invoices and small profit margins mean that every day counts when chasing debts. With a proven track record in the industry, OnGuard allows its users to be proactive in their approach, giving them the ability to recognize payment patterns and settle invoices more quickly.
Eisenmann adds: "By keeping an open relationship with our clients and regularly attending trade shows, we are able to closely monitor the market trends in North America. This allows us to anticipate the needs of our clients and provide them with superior features, such as our recent addition of customer scoring to the core platform, and new products ahead of the competition. We also provide our clients with intense end-user training right before they go live with our products as we are well aware of the fact that educated end-users will always return the most effective results for organizations who buy into our product. "
