Expertise, Availability, and Responsiveness: The Core Strengths of This Dynamic Team

“I turned to our partner MGI when setting up an EDI interface between the CI5 portal and our TMS tool dedicated to freight forwarding. At every stage of the project — from the feasibility study and quote to implementation, development, improvements, and adjustments — I was thoroughly supported by the MGI teams, both in terms of commercial relations and technical support. Expertise, availability, and responsiveness are the main qualities I associate with this dynamic team. Even my most demanding requests were heard, carefully analyzed, and alternative solutions were proposed when technical constraints were too significant. Given the growing importance of system-to-system exchanges in today’s world — and their undeniable impact on productivity in our industry — we’ll undoubtedly have more projects in the future. And I’m confident I can continue to rely on this essential partner.”

Greater Flexibility for Hazardous Goods Declarations

“For over 35 years in the Marseille area, MGI has been a key player in freight transport. As a freight forwarder handling an average of 9,000 TEUs per year from our Port-Saint-Louis-du-Rhône site, it would be unthinkable for us not to use their CI5 system. With around fifteen years of experience in the industry, I’ve also used its predecessor, AP+. While it was already highly efficient, the arrival of CI5 took things to the next level for our container declarations. It’s far more user-friendly and intuitive. It also offers much greater flexibility, especially when it comes to hazardous goods declarations. In short, CI5 has made our daily work much easier since its launch.”
