Early triggering of customs declarations

Early triggering of customs declarations allows operators handling imports and/or exports to notify customs authorities about their goods in advance.

Retrieval of status timestamps (Tracking)

With the status timestamp retrieval function, supply chain stakeholders can directly receive in their proprietary systems the timestamps of cargo statuses, as well as the scheduled and actual arrival and departure times of vessels (ETA/ETD and RTA/RTD).

Integration of Shipping Orders into Ci5

Port community stakeholders can directly integrate and close operational and administrative transport documents via their proprietary systems (TMS) or through EDI messages.

Retrieval of Release Orders

Shippers receive the cargo release orders (Release Orders) directly in their Transport Management System (TMS) via BAD (Bon à Délivrer) messages.

Retrieval of information during a booking modification

When you are designated as the Claimant in a booking, any changes to the booking information will automatically trigger a notification sent to you.

Notifications to ICS2

With notifications to ICS2, you can complete your ICS EDI formalities (creation of ENS, arrival notification, etc.).

Traceability, interoperability, speed, and security

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.”
