NVOCC Service Arrangements (NSAs)
The FMC recently ruled that NVOCCs can enter into confidential NVOCC Service Arrangements (NSAs) with shippers. As with most regulatory shifts, this ruling creates both new challenges and new opportunities. However, not since the Ocean Shipping Reform Act (OSRA) of 1998 has a ruling so fundamentally altered the competitive playing field - in this case in favor of NVOCCs. But only those who act decisively will reap the benefits. Freightgate's Tariff-Trek! with NSA is ready to help you do just that. The Opportunity -- NSAs are:
Potential Benefit: You can now contractually solidify your key customer relationships and increase your yields.

- Electronic filing into the FMC ServCon system.
- Managing the Amendments and cross references of essential terms in your tariff.
