to preferred carriers or “cascaded” based on user-defined priorities / ranking
Create, update, and/or cancel your load tenders online
Transportation partners can accept / reject loads in real time
All parties gain real time visibility on the status and details of a specific load

twSelecttwSelect: Value Proposition: Value Proposition
Increased automation of the entire Load Tendering process
Enforces best practice carrier selection & routing guide instructions — Eliminates offering the load to the “most likely to accept”— Drives carrier selection towards the providers offering the most cost
efficiency or highest service level
Automation of process creates a “safety net”: when a carrier rejects / fails to accept, a next one is selected automatically
— Eliminates rush to find alternative solutions in case a load is not accepted — Process can automatically occur/continue after hours
Resource efficiency— Frees up resources for added value tasks - no more faxing or calling to
confirm acceptance— Easier and faster to find a carrier for difficult lanes, express orders etc.
Configurability enables quick & easy ongoing management of preferences
— Rapid updates can be made in response to carrier contract negotiations and/or performance history
