We are a professional services consulting firm that helps cargo facilities to become more efficient and productive. Our customers earn revenue mainly by how much cargo they handle – the throughput. The faster the cargo turns on a given property, the more they earn. We help change the process, layout and technology to help them meet their goals. We deliver engineering planning and analysis to the customer to assist with decision-making on possible changes to equipment, process, layout and technology. We then help plan, specify and implement the changes.

Using a big picture approach, Cargo Velocity offers multi-layer, long-term, process-oriented assessment, analysis, planning, and design. We have the expert resources to provide project management, team building, strategic planning, engineering, and technology improvements for TOS projects, gate systems, tracking systems and IT infrastructure. We work with sea and inland ports as well as rail depots.

Whether your project is a large multi-year effort or a small specific goal, Cargo Velocity can help your team achieve success. We use a variety of situation-specific models to get to the root of the cause and find the best solutions. Transforming distressed industrial properties for a high return on investment (ROI) is one of our specialties. We also offer a placement service for short or long-term technical staffing needs, including part-time, full-time, remote, and in-person. Please contact us to see how we can help you achieve your goals.
