FreightTender vs General Procurement Software
Generic procurement tools are not built for freight: vessel specs, laytime, and closed broker competition.
Generic procurement: gaps for freight
- Not freight-specific: no vessel specs, laycan, laytime, or freight-rate structure
- Often open or semi-open visibility → not suitable for closed broker competition
- No eBL or freight-document workflows
- Audit may not meet commodity trading compliance expectations
FreightTender: built for freight
- Structured freight offers: rate, vessel, laycan, technical terms in one place
- Closed bidding: invite-only brokers, zero cross-visibility
- eBL and integrations planned; audit trail for compliance
- Designed for commodity and chemical traders
Freight built for commodity desks
Walk through vessel specs, laytime, and closed broker bids — not generic RFQ fields.
