Case study · Inquiry to Quote Automation

From a buried inbox to quotes in minutes.

How a leading enterprise freight forwarder automated its entire inquiry-to-quote desk with Intemo, and saw the revenue impact inside the first quarter.

Enterprise freight forwarder 12 branches, pan-India 1000+ inquiries / month Air & sea
The client

A leading enterprise freight forwarder in India, handling 1000+ inquiries every month across air and sea, with 12 branches operating pan-India.

The pain point

A quoting desk drowning in manual work.

Manual email reading, logging and data entry for every single inquiry.

Rate fetching across multiple carrier portals was slow and error-prone.

Quotes built from scratch in Excel each time, no templates, no automation.

No centralised tracking, 15–20% of inquiries missed at peak.

Our solution

One automated flow, inbox to client.

Intemo's agents took over the full inquiry-to-quote loop, reading the inbox, fetching rates, building the quote and sending it back.

Only RFQ & inquiry emails were read automatically from the inbox.

02

“Before Intemo, our team was buried in emails. We were losing inquiries we didn't even know had come in. Within four weeks of going live, our quote output tripled. The revenue impact was visible within the first quarter.”
