CarrierPoint overview

CarrierPoint Web-based logistics software allows shippers, carriers, and brokers to communicate and conduct business with each other in real time.

CarrierPoint allows transportation business partners to deal directly without using labor-intensive and error-prone business processes or expensive EDI technology. This real-time communication enhances the traditional logistics process, significantly increasing efficiencies and reducing costs for all participants.

Using proprietary technology, CarrierPoint helps optimize your supply chain. Shippers and carriers can easily tender their pre-assigned contract loads through their own private marketplace or access a network of brokers and carriers for exception or "one-off" loads. CarrierPoint also provides the capability to schedule pick-up and delivery appointments on-line and perform data mining/analytical reporting on historical transportation-related activities. Shippers, carriers, and brokers can build collaborative networks with each other to reduce costs, improve service levels, and capture data for decision-making while maintaining the level of control they enjoy over their current processes.
