dispatching a move...
"Did I include all the information on the dispatch...?"
"Did my vendor confirm receipt of the order...?"

When initiating a move, IRIS takes over to make the process easy.

The process begins with a rate quote. Upon initiating the dispatch process, information from the quote is copied to the dispatch screen. Information, such as supplier/receiver, port/CY, or empty location address, is entered only once to our system. It is then recorded in our database to be retrieved for future moves. Specific Information per move (i.e. container number, shipping line, BOL/Booking) is simply filled in once per shipment, regardless of the number of intermodal connections needed. For your convenience, the dispatch form can be partially filled in and saved, to be later retrieved. Prior to transmission, IRIS will perform a check to ensure that all information required to perform the move, is complete. At the click of a mouse, the information is transferred, a confirmation number is automatically generated and returned to you as verification that information has been received. IMS then executes the move.
