Manifold Software Information

Manifold builds software for breakbulk and project-cargo terminals. Many terminal operators have no one whose job is finding cargo. The work still has to happen, so it happens in someone's spare time, usually after the operating day is done. Manifold does three things about that. Business development. A research desk pointed at a single terminal. It reads the places project cargo appears first — air permits, township planning files, utility commission dockets, Army Corps notices, state DOT lettings, SEC filings and capital budgets — and surfaces only the opportunities that fit that operator's berths, draft, equipment and modes. Every claim is checked against its source document before it reaches the customer. Cost modeling and job pricing. An operator's own rate sheet, labor burden, overtime multipliers and equipment, loaded into a model, so a job can be quoted without rebuilding the arithmetic each time. Document capture. Handwritten tally sheets and dock paperwork turned into data, so back-office work becomes review rather than re-entry. Manifold takes away retyping and manual research. It does not replace the people who run terminals.
