Webinar: Why Carrier Relationship Platforms Are the Glue That Holds Your Network Together

The truckload freight market is the most fragmented in the transportation industry. Some 90 percent of capacity is provided by small fleets (20 trucks or less) and independent owner-operators. These capacity providers face a myriad of challenges to operating a successful business—whether it’s securing and booking the next load in real time, optimally navigating congested highways, finding the cheapest fuel or locating safe, secured parking—and optimizing the revenue opportunity for their trucks.

Increasingly, truckers are finding solutions through the adoption of powerful, user-friendly technologies—in particular, carrier relationship management platforms. These platforms provide apps that are highly functional, mobile-based, easy to use and help solve the most pressing issues that truckers face in running a business.

They also are becoming the glue that, for freight brokers, helps hold their carrier networks together and enables them to match the right load with the right carrier at the right time to meet shipper needs. Never has the introduction of a digital technology solution created an environment where brokers can meaningfully achieve better carrier engagement and carriers can more efficiently work with brokers in a collaborative environment.

This webinar—presented by FreightWaves in partnership with Trucker Tools—will examine how carrier relationship management platforms have evolved, key attributes that truckers demand from these mobile-based solutions, and how such platforms are leading to more precise and efficient operations for both broker and carriers. Join us at 2pm ET on Tuesday, March 22 for the live session, featuring insights from Trucker Tools’ Founder and CEO, Prasad Gollapalli.
