The Freight & Logistics industry models consist of an integrated set of Enterprise, Business Area, Data Mart and Data Warehouse logical data models developed for companies providing transportation and shipping services.

The Freight & Logistics data models support the identification and tracking of shipments at multiple locations, routing, packaging, consolidation, documentation, warehousing/storage, intermodel transit, fees and charges, third-party responsibilities, carrier assignments and security.

This comprehensive single-view of transit information enables consignee, shipper, intermediate handlers and consignor to determine the current location and status of a shipment at any point within the transit process.
