An Integration That Aligns with Grimaldi Workflows
While many TMS platforms offer basic carrier connectivity, Logisoft delivers a fully aligned solution. Our integration with Grimaldi is built on a real-time, bidirectional API connection and mirrors the operational rules that Grimaldi enforces across its booking lifecycle.
From booking creation to status updates and tracking synchronization, the system is designed to reduce back-and-forth and keep your data clean and compliant.
Key Benefits for Grimaldi Customers
✅ Streamlined Booking Operations
With Logisoft, users can send bookings directly to Grimaldi from within the TMS, avoiding the need to re-enter data into the carrier portal. The system supports both RoRo and container bookings, even for complex multi-unit shipments.
✅ Built-In Compliance with carrier-defined logic
Each Grimaldi shipment follows a structured status progression (Booked, OnQuay, Loaded, BL Printed), with specific fields locked at each stage. Logisoft TMS is fully aware of these constraints and applies status-aware validations, preventing errors and rejected updates before they happen. It also supports Grimaldi's 96-hour vessel departure restrictions, helping your team stay compliant and avoid late-stage issues.
✅ Automatic Safeguards for Data Consistency
Grimaldi may update fields such as actual measured weights, engine type, or customs clearance status. Logisoft intelligently compares current updates with the last confirmed Grimaldi data and retains Grimaldi’s authoritative data when necessary. This ensures that your team avoids conflicts and maintains data integrity.
✅ Full Audit Trail and Visibility
Every interaction with Grimaldi, from booking submissions to tracking updates, is recorded in the TMS. Teams gain full visibility into booking status and carrier communications, helping operations and customer service resolve issues quickly and confidently.
✅ One-Click Draft BL Download
Users can download the draft Bill of Lading directly from within Logisoft TMS, without needing to log into the Grimaldi portal.
✅ Real-Time Updates and Validations
All booking changes go through built-in validation logic and are sent automatically to Grimaldi. There is no need for manual resubmission or risk of data rejection.
✅ Always-Current Sailing Schedules
Logisoft automatically retrieves the latest sailing schedules from Grimaldi, updating ETAs and ETDs, and voyage information directly within your TMS. This eliminates the need to manually create or maintain voyage records.
✅ Aligned with Grimaldi's Regional and Trade Lane Requirements
The integration accounts for regional rules, such as EORI validation for EU imports, or payment mode exceptions on the North America to West Africa lane. This ensures your bookings remain fully compliant across different trade scenarios.
Ideal for Teams Looking to Scale
If you're currently relying on manual portal entry or disconnected workflows, this integration helps your team:
- Eliminate duplicate entry across TMS and Grimaldi portal
- Download and review draft BLs directly from within the TMS
- Send validated booking updates instantly to Grimaldi without manual follow-up
- Stay on top of sailing schedules with automatic voyage and ETAs and ETDs updates
- Reduce compliance risk with built-in status-aware field restrictions and validations
Teams using this integration report fewer booking errors, faster turnaround, and more predictable workflows.
And because the Logisoft Grimaldi integration is already in place with active users, our team can get you started quickly and ensure a smooth rollout.
