For Logistics & 3PL Operators

Custom Logistics & 3PL Software

Warehouse, dispatch, orders, and tracking in one system — built around how your operation actually runs, not an off-the-shelf compromise. For Gulf Coast 3PLs, distributors, and fleets.

Most logistics software makes you bend your operation to fit the tool — and charges per user forever. We do the opposite. Charpen builds custom logistics and 3PL software that mirrors exactly how your business quotes, dispatches, ships, and bills, so your team moves faster instead of fighting a generic system.

Whether you're a third-party logistics provider, a distributor, or a fleet running your own dispatch, we replace the spreadsheets and disconnected tools with one platform you own — and we integrate it with the systems you already use, like QuickBooks.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does custom 3PL or logistics software cost?

Most projects run between $15,000 and $50,000+ depending on scope. We start with a focused phase that proves value quickly, and give an honest estimate before any commitment.

Why build custom instead of buying an off-the-shelf 3PL or TMS?

Off-the-shelf systems force you to change how you work and often cost more over time in per-user fees. Custom software fits your exact workflow — your quoting, dispatch, and billing — and you own it.

Can it integrate with QuickBooks and our carriers?

Yes. We build around your existing tools, including QuickBooks for accounting and your carrier and vendor systems, so data flows without double entry.

How long does it take to build?

Typically delivered in phases over 12 to 16 weeks, with working software at the end of each phase rather than one long build.
