We offer general and project cargo services. Our in-house services include the following:
1. route studies/logistics consultation; Matrix will allocate the necessary time and resources to provide our clients with accurate transportation and destination country information. Frequent travel and feasibility studies in destination countries have provided Matrix a unique opportunity to fully understand and operate within the policies and procedures imposed by foreign government officials in-country.
2. export documentation; We have developed documentation and procedures, which allow for transit through ports and border crossings to the final destination. We create all customs documentation required for air and ocean import into the destination country including the Original Master Air Waybill/Ocean Bill of Lading, Commercial Invoice, Certificate of Origin (when required) and Packing List, and Valued Inventory.
3. warehousing; All warehouse services including receiving and packing are performed onsite by our personnel. All receiving and shipping data is reported directly to the Matrix Control Office creating a seem less, centralized inventory management system.
4. marshalling and consolidation of cargo; We are often responsible for receiving of cargo, detailed inventory control, full warehouse documentation, consolidation of individual line items (from the multiple vendors) into individual kits for distribution to different sites at destination, and door-to-door shipment management from our warehouse to literally hundreds of outlying sites for each project. The complexity of these projects require us to continually update and expand its tracking software to maintain control and keep accurate records of what is received and shipped at any give time.
5. export pack/crate; Depending on cargo type, we can arrange for packaging ranging from shrink wrapping the goods to full export crating. Air shipments are packed in either wooden crates or tri-wall containers to ensure cargo integrity and for easy handling. Ocean shipments can be custom crated as necessary right on the premises. All dangerous and hazardous goods are dispatched to a licensed hazardous materials packer for proper containerization prior to export.
6. insurance; Matrix International offers insurance policies. We provide our clients with the lowest premiums for insurance coverage available in the industry today. We will produce the necessary documentation and submit documents to the insurance company on your behalf.
7. negotiating competitive rates; We routinely negotiate quantity discounts with airlines and ocean carriers to insure you are getting the best price and service combination.
8. booking air/ocean/truck/rail; We book each shipment/charter with the appropriate carrier.
9. chartering vessels and aircraft; We have been responsible for numerous humanitarian aid shipments by aircraft and vessel on a charter basis to the CIS, Africa, Asia and the Middle East.
10. reporting/tracking shipment status; We are able to provide our clients with "In Transit Visibility" (ITV), i.e., the ability to "see" the location and status of each shipment and each line item and sub line item in that shipment at any point in time.
11. customs clearance; We will arrange receipt of shipping documents and recheck the same to ensure that all the documents are in order.
12. delivery; We provide and coordinate all transportation to assure prompt, damage-free delivery of cargo to destination site or any specified locations.
13. USAID; Operating within the policies and procedures imposed by both USAID and local government officials in each country has allowed us to build long-term relationships with local agencies in these beneficiary countries that have proven to be invaluable over the years.
