“You care for freight, we care for you”
More than logistics! The time has come. Time for a new perspective and new ideas. Time for innovation in transportation and logistics.
We call it Scope. The modular transport management system
developed by Riege Software International is so user-friendly,
powerful and flexible, that it is impossible to imagine how the
cargo business could function without it.

The development of Scope marks a new milestone in the history
of Riege Software International (Riege). The family business,
based in Meerbusch near Düsseldorf, is a leading provider of
smart software solutions for freight and logistics.
With around 80 employees, over 300 international customers
and offices in Europe, Asia, North America and Australia, Riege
has made a name for itself as an experienced partner for freight
forwarders, carriers and manufacturing businesses. Riege not
only provides the industry with individual logistics solutions but
also offers extensive first-hand customer support and services.
A family business – an extensive knowledge base.

Commitment, a good grasp of international trade andJohannes Riege – company founder and expert in transportation and logistics – was developing software for the aviation industry as
early as 1978. A passion that he passed on to three of his sons, who are now enthusiastically engaged in running the company.
Over 25 years of experience, development and know-how are behind Riege’s products, which cover the whole range of functions in the
process chain via e-solution: from handling freight, to management, organisation and reporting through to customs.
new developments.

What are the key functions in the business of global transportation and the organisation of the international stream of goods?
After founding his company in 1985, Johannes Riege provided
the answer to all logistics issues concerning air and sea freight
as well as customs with his complex Procars (Professional Carri-
age System) application, setting a standard for the industry. High
customer satisfaction and long-term business partnerships have
accompanied Procars since its launch. Currently the application
is running in 120 countries.
What opportunities do reliable system solutions offer for handling freight shipments?
And what role does IT play for the industry?
The business of global transportation is booming, demands are
growing and with them the need for practical logistics solutions.
Riege’s new Scope software provides an excellent, pioneering
tool that caters to the needs of the evolving global market. Faster,
more efficient and multifunctional, Scope combines all of Procars
important features with state of the art software architecture.
Modern. Reliable. Scope!
The new generation of logistics software for air and sea freight and customs.
Large or small, export or import – international companies and freight forwarders value the advantages of the system that was first introduced in 2009 at the transport logistic trade fair in Munich.
The advantages of Scope at a glance.
Scope offers full support for air and sea freight
processing as well as customs.
Modules and components for import and export can
be combined as required. All business processes can be
conducted reliably and consistently.
Scope offers individual and tailor-made solutions. It connects
easily to existing application systems and custom software
applications such as ERP systems or other e-solutions.
The programming model for Scope is based on the
industry standard Java Enterprise Edition (JEE) and ensures
the application’s enhanced scalability, availability and reliability.
For further information about Scope’s various individual modules
and features visit www.riege.com.
The user interface is understandable, aesthetic and easy
to use. Many files can be kept open and edited simultaneously.
Search functions and help features provide useful shortcuts and
support.
Scope utilizes interfaces that ensure a smooth exchange of
data via messaging or Web services with external systems.
Scope works with various local languages, sign systems,
number formats as well as date and time information.
Most of the master data in Scope is managed centrally and
regularly updated.
15
Shipping: Word, Excel, PDF or JPG documents can be conver-
ted to any format and sent as an email to parties involved.
Cross-system: Standardised file formats facilitate the proces-
sing of the data in conjunction with other automated systems.
Availability: Contracts, data and status can be viewed
anytime and from anywhere, since they are managed centrally
by Scope.
This offers several advantages to the freight forwarder.
Overview: The documents for each step – from outgoing
to incoming – are automatically created and filed under the job.
Transparency: Costs, provisions and income can be viewed
at a glance and compared.
History: Where is profit or loss generated? Thanks to
financial transparency, transactions can be evaluated more
quickly and effectively.
Scope – always a step ahead!Goodbye piling paperwork. Welcome to centralised management: Scope increases transparency in the business of international transport.
When it comes to the execution and management of international
shipments, air and sea freight forwarders often have to deal with
time-consuming paperwork, various systems and waiting periods.
The problem: data and service requirements often vary, depen-
ding on the country, contracting party and goods. This calls for
consistent documentation that makes the procedure transparent
to all parties involved. Scope closes this gap. Riege’s intelligent
system manages, organises and structures customer orders and
data in a central electronic file.
And there’s more – Scope documents the entire international
transport procedure: 1. Registration of key data. 2. Pre-carriage
(collection of goods from sender, provision of goods to forwarding
air or sea carrier). 3. Main carriage (preparation of necessary
transportation documents). 4. On-carriage (delivery of goods
to recipient).

A great team: Scope and Customs!Exporting and importing companies appreciate the assistance of Riege’s quick and reliable software for completing customs formalities.
Customs formalities are as extensive as they are complex.
There are plenty of important points to deal with: import and
export requirements and regulations, goods, classification
and valuation, declarations, customs duty, inspection and
communications. In short: a wealth of information and data
needs to be checked, collected and kept readily available
around the clock. This mainly costs freight forwarders one
precious thing: time.
All parties involved in import and export can save valuable time by working with Scope Customs.
Riege’s customs-certified logistics software ensures a smooth and fast procedure.
At a glance:
Scope bundles all relevant information (including PDF files)
that needs to be exchanged with customs in all export and import
operations in one procedure. This exchange is carried out digital-
ly – time-consuming paper documentation becomes obsolete.
In the event that information and documents are required on
paper, they can be printed from Scope anytime.
Checking status in Scope offers a view of procedures,
whether still in progress or accurately completed. If problems
occur in the course of a process, these are registered and
organised accordingly.
If customs duty is levied in the import process, Scope auto-
matically creates a corresponding invoice in the system. This is –
again automatically – forwarded to the accounting department.
Worldwide, most customs systems are similar. Therefore,
Scope works with an interface that is identical for all systems –
regardless of what data or terms are filled in.
If a customer also uses Scope Forwarding, accompanying
customs procedures are directly accessible from the shipment.
Tasks can be opened and managed directly from the
shipment. This includes attached PDF files.
Incoming tax assessments are automatically filed as
invoices in conjunction with the respective shipment.
At the touch of a button these costs can be charged to
customers in the corresponding final invoice.

Version Control
Integrated in E-Mail
Creating and managing documents is simple with Scope.
All documents related to a business transaction are directly
accessible. Facilitating the PDF format, documents can be
conveniently exchanged electronically with partners and printed
on standard printers. Additional password protection of every
document allows for a maximum of data integrity. If a document
is created multiple times, all previous versions are retained and
changes between versions can be traced. External documents in
various formats can also be uploaded to Scope for further
processing.
Graphical User Interface
Ergonomic
Aesthetic
Consistent
Being productive using a complex software environment requires
a user-friendly interface. Scope combines an ergonomically
and aesthetically pleasing user experience. Screen layouts are
optimized to intuitively guide the user. Consistent usage and
standard behavior of user interface components lead to a
shallow learning curve. Common tasks are handled easily while
complex workflows are integrated in a clear and simple
visualization.
Scope – FeaturesSearch
Quick
Simple
Reliable
Scope provides an effortless way to search the underlying
database. Avoiding complex search dialogs and confusing filter
options, Scope facilitates an instant in-field search. Queries are
quick and results are reliable. Even potentially large sets of data
are manageable by applying intelligent predefined filters.
Validation/Plausibility Check
Increases Data Quality
“on-the-fly”
Severity Levels
Scope assists the user to ensure a high level of data quality.
Automatic validation checks are performed as soon as data is
entered, providing an overview of possible issues. Different
severity levels are used to distinguish between minor problems
(for example: missing data that is not required but improves data
quality) and major blockers (for example: invalid data).
Internationalization & Localization
Multi-language
Unicode
Date, Time and Number Formats
Scope has been designed to suit the challenges of our globalized
world. Support for multiple languages, local conventions and
regulations are naturally integrated. Date, time and number
formats dynamically adjust depending on your local specialities.
Scope ships with English and German translations and
additionally features formatting patterns for Great Britain, the
United States, Germany, Switzerland, and the Netherlands.
Additional languages are either being implemented or available
upon request.
Transparent
Seamless
Integrated in Document Management
Communication with partners is key for success. With the
seamless integration of email, Scope enables the user to store
and manage conversations transparently in relation to a business
transaction. A direct link to Scope’s document management
allows for easy paperless data exchange.
Cost Control
Revenue/Costs
Accruals
Credit Limit
Scope Cost Control provides a detailed break-down of income
and expenses for each transaction. Automatically generated
records store the cost summary and trigger an immediate alarm
if suppliers’ bills show any deviations. There is a credit limit
interface enabling allocation of your own individual credit ratings
to customers and monitoring of your exposure to financial risks.
It also features a function enabling you to present your monthly
financial statements supported by reliable benchmarking
statistics.
Data Update Service
Consistent
Reliable
Up-to-date
The Data Update Service ensures that all your master data –
e.g. countries, taxation, location codes, customs classifications
etc. – are always up to date. Riege’s support team reviews all
centrally administered data daily and updates, where necessary.
This leaves you free to dedicate your undivided energy to your
business, certain in the knowledge that your basic data are
regularly updated to current status.
