Itella Logistics implements Kewill’s Global Trade Management suite

Kewill announced it has signed a multi-year contract with Itella Logistics, part of Itella Group, to implement its Global Trade Management suite, across the company’s Nordics, Baltics and Russian operations.

Under the terms of the contract, Kewill will deploy its global transport management software, Kewill Transport, and global electronic customs software, Kewill CustomsXchange, to deliver a fully integrated solution. The implementation will be rolled out to 600 users across Itella’s Nordics, Baltic States and Russian operations, including Finland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania and Russia.

The solution will provide Itella Logistics with one central system to book, manage and monitor the complete shipment lifecycle for all the shipments it handles to and from the Nordics, Baltics and Russian region each month. This includes ensuring compliance with individual countries‘ customs requirements and EU-wide initiatives such as import, export and NCTS, by submitting the required documentation and exchanging information electronically with local customs authorities in real time.

Katri Sahlman, CIO, at Itella Logistics commented: "We were looking for one solution that could manage the end to end transport processes for all Itella Logistics‘ transport services, and also handle the complex customs requirements for our shipments throughout the Nordics, Baltics and Russian region. Kewill was able to satisfy all of our requirements and demonstrate experience of successful multi-country implementations of its software for other global logistics providers, which gives us the confidence not only that the solution will be delivered to a high standard, but that it is scalable to support our future growth."
