Core Functionality

Electronically tender loads to all your transportation providers and eliminate the use of phone, fax or email in this process—Routing rules (by route/lane) can be enforced. Loads can be tendered only

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
