Customer Testimonials
"When we started with INTTRA, our goal was to help set a standard in
the ocean shipping industry that created one point of electronic entry
for all ocean-freight transactions," said Wohlers. "In the past, we had
multiple points of entry, with different connections to each individual
carrier. This meant we had different processes and different data
standards between the various parties, all of which led to errors and
enormous inefficiencies."
-- Joachim Wohlers, Vice President of Global Sea Freight Systems
Kuehne & Nagel
"Kuehne & Nagel officials continually work hard to promote
customer satisfaction by providing shipping data visibility throughout
the course of a shipment. Their adoption of INTTRA's e-commerce tools
and services follows the logical progression of a shipment through the
supply chain."
-- Joachim Wohlers, Kuehne & Nagel
"Kuehne + Nagel started with INTTRA's electronic sailing schedule.
The next phase was electronic booking - INTTRA's eBooking
tool - followed by electronic shipping instructions and Bills of
Lading (Bs/L). And finally, of course, you want to know what's going to
happen to your cargo, so we deployed INTTRA's electronic Track & Trace Information tool."
-- Joachim Wohlers, Kuehne & Nagel
"Now we have set standards for electronic entry with a number of
carriers and other users participating in the INTTRA network. And our
data quality is growing, which is a major competitive benefit for us.
Quality and communication is always a challenge when managing with
24,000 employees and thousands of customers."
-- Joachim Wohlers Kuehne & Nagel
"Since integrating with INTTRA our shipment processes are
better. We see improvements in the turnaround time and data
quality of our documentation. Fewer revisions are necessary now,
and that saves us time and money."
-- Eric Wu, Vice President, Casa China
"A global leader in integrated paper, packaging and forest products
with a worldwide market in the production of publication and fine
papers, Stora Enso selected INTTRA's I-Link system-to-system connection
because the volumes the company was dealing with made this type of link
more viable than a Web-based solution,"
--
Anna Wilhelmsson, Supervisor and Coordinator of the Stora Enso Infologistic Service Support Team
"In looking to enhance electronic transactions with its carriers,
Stora Enso recognized that INTTRA was the system to which the carriers
were connected,"
-- Anna Wilhelmsson, Supervisor and Coordinator of the Stora Enso Infologistic Service Support Team
"Between its mills and its carriers worldwide, Stora Enso has a
complex supply chain. Different carriers needed to use different
interfaces. The idea was to minimize the workload and
streamline as many of the processes as possible. During the
integration period, systems and processes have been aligned - with, for
example, changes to internal coding and keyboard alterations made to
reflect different national languages - to allow for seamless
communication between Stora Enso's transport and distribution centers
and its carriers."
-- Anna Wilhelmsson, Supervisor and Coordinator of the Stora Enso Infologistic Service Support Team
"The new system has greatly reduced the time it takes to issue
booking requests and shipping instructions, ultimately delivering cost
savings to Stora Enso. Now you don't have to sit and wait when the
person that you need to speak to is on the line. You just send the
booking. So you get more shipments done a day and you have more time to
deal with the bigger issues."
-- Anna Wilhelmsson, Supervisor and Coordinator of the Stora Enso Infologistic Service Support Team
"We've achieved the benefit of a seamless process where the mills
are the first line of information. They know what to enter. This
data is then in the system from the beginning, so it won't have to be
retyped. That will reduce a lot of problems."

"Stora Enso still moves mountains but saves money and improves efficiency"
-- Lloyd's List
"The company wanted to improve its communications with carriers and
reduce errors caused by manual inputting. Data volumes the company was
generating made I-Link more viable than a simple web-based solution,
since it enabled the connection of the supply chain to Inttra's
multi-carrier network via one connection."
