By using FourKites’ technology, HaulFox’s customers can experience full visibility of location and estimated time of arrival, including predictive weather and traffic impact on delivery times, every 15 minutes, FourKites said.
FourKites’ real-time freight visibility platform and HaulFox’s software have been integrated into one platform.
Chicago-based FourKites said its technology collects shipping location and status information in real-time from over 60 onboard GPS/ELD systems, trailer tracking services and driver cell phones.
Using FourKites’ technology allows HaulFox’s customers to experience full visibility of location and estimated time of arrival, including predictive weather and traffic impact on delivery times, every 15 minutes, FourKites said.
“Hours-old visibility updates were acceptable in the past, but now shippers expect their freight brokers to know where an 80,000-pound truck hauling $100,000 worth of cargo is at any given time,” HaulFox Founder and COO Jonathan Drouin said. “By partnering with FourKites, HaulFox can deliver on our brand promise to automate processes and focus on ruthless efficiency and productivity gains.”
Dallas-based HaulFox focuses on developing freight technology platforms to service the transportation and logistics industry with an emphasis on third-party logistics companies.
